Abstract
Facial expression recognition using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is a prevalent research area, and the network's complexity poses obstacles for deployment on devices with limited computational resources, such as mobile devices. To address these challenges, researchers have developed lightweight networks with the aim of reducing model size and minimizing parameters without compromising accuracy. The LiteFer method introduced in this study incorporates depth-separable convolution and a lightweight attention mechanism, effectively reducing network parameters. Moreover, through comprehensive comparative experiments on the RAFDB and FERPlus datasets, its superior performance over various state-of-the-art lightweight expression-recognition methods is evident.
