Using machine learning techniques to recognize nonverbal signals such as facial expressions is both useful and challenging. Uses that interest our group include providing reflective feedback to teachers and students; and helping those with challenges in recognizing nonverbal cues to build these skills. The main challenges are a paucity of openly available, annotated images that express a variety of emotions and the confusion that comes when a person’s identity is entangled with their emotional responses. We are looking for students who possess good programming skills and are interested in applying these in the context of human learning.
