This paper tackles a crucial issue in machine learning, specifically with convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which struggle to adapt to new tasks due to catastrophic forgetting. The proposed solution, emotion-centered generative replay (ECgr), combines synthetic images from generative adversarial networks with a quality assurance algorithm to ensure the accuracy of generated data. By leveraging this approach, CNNs can retain past knowledge while learning new tasks, leading to improved performance in facial expression recognition. The method is evaluated on four diverse datasets, demonstrating its effectiveness in enhancing training and retaining previously learned information.

This paper helps machines better recognize human emotions by fixing a big problem with computer vision called catastrophic forgetting. Current computers struggle to learn from old data when they’re learning new things. The researchers created a new way to generate fake images that help computers remember what they already knew, while still learning new tasks. They tested this method on four different facial expression datasets and showed that it works well for recognizing emotions.
