Popis: This paper represents automatic facial expression analysis method named Local Directional Stigma Mean Patterns (LDSMP) for automatic facial expression analysis and image retrieval using content based facial expression image retrieval and CNN. The traditional local patterns such as Local Binary Patterns (LBP) and Local Ternary Patterns (LTP) are applied for face recognition and expression analysis, calculated using relationship between the center pixel and neighboring pixels. The proposed method calculates the eight directional difference values then divided into the three ranges based on threshold values. Thus, the values are substituted with basic three positive values (+3, +2, +1) and three negative values (-3, -2, -1) to get more sensitive information from an image rather than aforementioned methods. The threshold can be select either static which is selected by user or dynamic is evaluated from image itself and supports to improve the efficiency. The performance of the proposed method is further improved by giving this patterns as input to the Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and compared with the existing methods LBP, LTP, and Directional Binary Code (DBC) in terms of Average Precision (AP), Average Recall (AR), and Average Retrieval Rate (ARR) using standard databases COREL 10K (DB1) and JAFFE (The Japanese Female Facial Expression) (DB2) and Extended Cohn-Kanade (CK +) (DB3) dataset.
