Hey everyone! Iโm super excited to share that my latest paper, "Emotion estimation from video footage with LSTM," has just been accepted in Frontiers in Neurorobotics! ๐
I developed a new model called BlendFER-Lite that uses MediaPipe Blendshapes and LSTMs to detect emotions from live video. The cool part? It matches the accuracy benchmarks of much heavier models (71% on FER2013) but with significantly lower computational cost, making it perfect for real-time robotics and edge devices.

Would love to hear your thoughts or answer any questions!
