Effectiveness of Using Artificial Intelligence for Early Child Development Screening

This study presents a novel approach to recognizing emotions in infants using machine learning models. To address the lack of infant-specific datasets, a custom dataset of infants' faces was created by extracting images from the AffectNet dataset. The dataset was then used to train various mach...
