This project develops a facial expression recognition system using PyTorch. The model classifies facial expressions into categories such as happy, sad, angry, surprised, etc., by using a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The model is trained and tested using a dataset from Kaggle that contains labeled images of facial expressions.

## Model Architecture
44+
The facial expression recognition system is built using a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), a class of deep learning models commonly used for image-related tasks. The model architecture is designed to classify images of faces into distinct facial expression categories such as happy, sad, angry, surprised, etc.
45+
46+
#### Key Components:
47+
48+
- **Convolutional Layers**: Extract spatial features by applying filters to detect patterns (edges, corners, textures) essential for identifying facial expressions.
49+
- **Pooling Layers**: Downsample feature maps to reduce dimensionality while retaining important information, enhancing efficiency and mitigating overfitting.
50+
- **Fully Connected Layers**: Process extracted features for final classification into emotion categories.
51+
52+
- **Pre-trained Models from TIMM**: Utilizes pre-trained models like EfficientNet or ResNet from the TIMM (PyTorch Image Models) library to leverage learned knowledge from large datasets, improving training speed and accuracy.
53+
54+
- **Data Augmentation with Albumentations**: Enhances the dataset through transformations (e.g., rotations, flips, brightness adjustments), increasing variability and robustness against real-world conditions.
55+
56+
- **Loss Function and Optimizer**: Trained using categorical cross-entropy loss for multi-class classification. Common optimizers include Adam or SGD to minimize the loss.
57+
58+
- **Output Layer**: Features a softmax activation function, providing probabilities for each facial expression class. The class with the highest probability is selected as the predicted emotion.
