description | Transfer learning, a domain of machine learning, seeks to be an efficient solution over traditional machine learning techniques by adapting existing convolutional neural networks (CNN) to suit a new problem. Adapting a CNN for transfer learning can be done through the changing of hyperparameters and the freezing of CNN’s layers.
In this paper, transfer learning was implemented to VGG-Face, a state-of-the-art facial recognition CNN, where it was adapted to understand and classify images from the JAFFE dataset consisting of four different human facial emotions: (1) Angry, (2) Happy, (3) Sad, (4) Surprised.
A cascade transfer learning was performed using the FER2013 dataset for the first fine- tune and a portion of the Japanese Female Facial Expression (JAFFE) dataset for the second fine-tune. The test accuracy was then taken using a portion of the JAFFE dataset. The changing of hyperparameters and the freezing of the CNN’s layers within the VGG- Face CNN were also discussed in this paper. The experiments were ran using a NVIDIA RTX 2060 GPU on MATLAB R2020a using its various toolboxes.
The final architecture proposed a validation accuracy of 62.41% on the FER2013 dataset, and a test accuracy 86.11% on the JAFFE test dataset, which was an increase compared to the baseline of 20.63% and 27.78% respectively. |
