Insights Into AI Systems for Recognizing Human Emotions, Actions, and Gestures

Abstract

The capacity of AI systems to recognize and interpret human emotions, actions, and gestures is reshaping numerous sectors, from entertainment to security. This chapter offers a comprehensive review of the current state-of-the-art technologies in this domain, shedding light on their strengths, potential limitations, and avenues for improvement. In recent years, systems capable of recognizing and understanding human emotions, actions, and gestures have shown remarkable progress. They are deployed in diverse applications, including virtual reality, healthcare, and human-computer interaction. However, understanding their capabilities and limitations is crucial to harness their potential fully. Our research provides a deep dive into the strengths of existing AI systems, showcasing their ability to accurately decipher complex human expressions, movements, and emotional states. We also critically examine potential limitations, such as bias in training data or challenges in recognizing subtle cultural nuances.
