摘要

<jats:p>HOG Feature is an efficient edge information descriptor, but it ignores the spatial arrangement of local FER features. In this respect, this paper puts forward a spatial multi-scale model based on an improved HOG algorithm which uses canny operator instead of traditional gradient operator. After the image is divided into a series of sub-regions layer by layer, the histogram of orient gradients for each sub-region is calculated and connected in sequence to obtain the spatial multi-scale HOG feature of whole image. Compared with traditional HOG and the improved PHOG, the proposed SMS_HOG algorithm acquires 5% recognition rate improvement and 50% processing time reduction.</jats:p>
