Abstract
Early rehabilitation with the right intensity contributes to the physical recovery of stroke survivors. In clinical practice, physicians determine whether the training intensity is suitable for rehabilitation based on patients’ narratives, training scores, and evaluation scales, which puts tremendous pressure on medical resources. In this study, a lightweight facial expression recognition algorithm is proposed to diagnose stroke patients’ training motivations automatically. First, the properties of convolution are introduced into the Vision Transformer’s structure, allowing the model to extract both local and global features of facial expressions. Second, the pyramid-shaped feature output mode in Convolutional Neural Networks is also introduced to reduce the model’s parameters and calculation costs significantly. Moreover, a classifier that can better classify facial expressions of stroke patients is designed to improve performance further. We verified the proposed algorithm on the Real-world Affective Faces Database (RAF-DB), the Face Expression Recognition Plus Dataset (FER+), and a private dataset for stroke patients. Experiments show that the backbone network of the proposed algorithm achieves better performance than Pyramid Vision Transformer (PvT) and Convolutional Vision Transformer (CvT) with fewer parameters and Floating-point Operations Per Second (FLOPs). In addition, the algorithm reaches an 89.44% accuracy on the RAF-DB dataset, which is higher than other recent studies. In particular, it obtains an accuracy of 99.81% on the private dataset, with only 4.10M parameters.
