Emotion recognition: Can AI detect human feelings from a face? 13 minutes to read By: Madhumita Murgia The market for the technology is growing rapidly despite questions from scientists about whether it works. For most of the past year, students at True Light College, a secondary school for girls in Kowloon, Hong Kong, have been attending classes from home. But unlike most children around the world forced into home-schooling during the pandemic, the students at True Light are being watched as they sit at their desks. Unblinking eyes scrutinise each child s facial expressions through their computer s cameras. The eyes belong to a piece of software called 4 Little Trees, an artificial intelligence program that claims it can read the children s emotions as they learn. The program s goal is to help teachers make distance learning more interactive and personalised, by responding to an individual student s reactions in real time.
