What should be taught first: the emotional expression or the face?
Résumé
We are interested in knowing how a robot head can learn to recognize facial expressions without supervision. Our starting point is a mathematical model showing that a sensory-motor architecture is able to express its emotions succeedes to recognize on-line the facial expression of a caregiver if this latter naturally tends to imitate or to resonate with the system. Interestingly, our works also show that, learning autonomously to recognize a face/non face is more complex than to recognize a facial expression. We propose an architecture using the interaction rhythm to allow first a robust learning of the facial expression without a face tracking and next to perform the learning of the face/non face recognition. Finally we emphasize the importance of the emotions as a mechanism to ensure the dynamical coupling between individuals allowing to learn more and more complex tasks.
