Emotion recognition with CNNs

One of the hardest problems to solve in deep learning has nothing to do with neural nets, it's the problem of getting the right data in the right format. However, a valuable assistant to find new problems, and new datasets to study, comes from the Kaggle platform (https://www.kaggle.com/).

The Kaggle platform was founded in 2010 as a platform for predictive modeling and analytics competitions on which companies and researchers post their data and statisticians and data miners from all over the world compete to produce the best models.

In this section, we show how to make a CNN for emotion detection from facial images. The train and test set of this example can be downloaded from https://inclass.kaggle.com/c/facial-keypoints-detector/data ...
