Emotion Detection AI/ML Model
Project Description
Astronauts are at risk of feeling isolation, circadian rhythm disturbance & mental health issues. Psychological consulting on well-being, diet, and nutrients might become unavailable for space missions beyond Low Earth Orbit. Recognition of emotions is critical to help astronauts maintain mental health and prevent health issues.
Our Proposal: Develop a trained AI model utilizing facial and vocal recognition to help monitor stress and emotions to maintain mental health and well-being.
We utilized 90+ datasets from the University of Southern California to train the AI Model. We also used ISS YouTube downlinks to help train the model with real astronauts' voices and facial expressions. We used Python for the AI Model, and utilized many libraries, as well as Logistic Regression and Random Forest Classification to train the AI Model.
Vocal Recognition - Results
For the vocal recognition, the model was trained separately on male and female voices. The heatmap demonstrates the differences in the correlations between each of the features. From there, our group focused on improving our accuracy, eventually reaching 83% accuracy.
Facial Recognition Results
The model was trained using DeepFace and OpenCV. The model portrayed accurate results on astronaut faces, and can give real-time emotion as well as emotion distribution.
