Face Mask Aware Robust Facial Expression Recognition During The Covid-19 Pandemic

Wearing face masks is considered an effective means of preventing the transmission of coronavirus during the COVID-19 pandemic. Facial expression recognition (FER) under partial occlusion, especially with face masks, makes it a challenging task in the research area of computer vision. In this paper, we propose a two-stage attention model to improve the accuracy of face-mask-aware FER: In stage 1, ...
