Abstract

Face recognition technology has garnered a lot of interest because of its vast range of applications and potential market. Digital video processing, security systems, and many other technological advancements are among the numerous industries in which it is being used. A person’s emotions are also recognized to be more strongly connected to music than any other art form. It has the special power to improve one’s mood. This study introduces an AI system that uses facial expressions to provide emotion-driven, real-time music recommendations. Our work focuses specifically on the evaluation of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and the use of deep learning techniques for Facial Emotion Recognition. CNNs are selected because of their exceptional performance in image classification tasks and their capacity to automatically extract important features from images. The Spotify API is coupled with an emotion database that maps the identified emotional states to provide music recommendations based on the user’s present mood. The suggested approach exhibits facial emotion recognition accuracy of about 89%. In addition to bridging the gap between artificial intelligence and emotional intelligence, this method redefines user-centric design in multimedia applications.
