A review of automated micro-expression analysis

Micro-expression is a type of facial expression that is manifested for a very short duration. It is difficult to recognize the expression manually because it involves very subtle facial movements. Such expressions often occur unconsciously, and therefore are defined as a basis to help identify t...
