This is a repo for CSCI-GA 2566 Foundations of Machine Learning course project, Activation Map Comparison between SVM and CNN.
Deep learning has derived several state-of-the-art methods in computer vision tasks in recent years. This project’s purpose is to re-introduce statistical learning methods, including SVM, to a classic vision task. The selected task is to recognize 7 emotions from facial expressions of 48 × 48 pixel images and finally evaluated by accuracy.
