Abstract

Facial expressions are crucial signals that convey messages, exchange thoughts, and express emotions through subtle facial movements. Recognizing human emotions remains a difficult endeavour since people frequently exhibit the same internal states in different ways, affected by cultural differences and personal habits. Modern deep learning architecture particularly the  Enhanced Compact Convolution Transformer provide remarkable superior result for detecting a facial emotions and give best result as compare to convolution neural network. This research recognise facial expression by using deep learning architecture utilize both local and global features. They are designed as hybrid models that bridge the gap between the local feature extraction of CNNs and the global context modelling of vision transformers. In this research we identify seven different stages of emotions like angry,disgust,Fear,sad,Happy, surprise,Natural.This experiment is conducted in FER2013 dataset. The proposed model achieve an highest accuracy of  as compare to Vision Transformer,Compect Convolutional Transformer
