The Facial Action Coding System (FACS) is a system to taxonomize human facial movements by their appearance on the face, based on a system originally developed by a Swedish anatomist named Carl-Herman Hjortsjö. [1] It was later adopted by Paul Ekman and Wallace V. Friesen, and published in 1978. [2]
The Facial Action Coding System (FACS) refers to a set of facial muscle movements that correspond to a displayed emotion. Originally created by Carl-Herman Hjortsjö with 23 facial motion units in 1970, it was subsequently developed further by Paul Ekman, and Wallace Friesen.
Movements of individual facial muscles are encoded by FACS from slight different instant changes in facial appearance. Using FACS it is possible to code nearly any anatomically possible facial expression, deconstructing it into the specific Action Units (AU) that produced the expression.
(Ekman and Friesen 1978) * AUs (Action Units) underlined bold are currently recognizable by AFA System when occurring alone or cooccurring. ** The criteria has changed for this AU, that is, AU 25, 26 and 27 are now coded according to criteria of intensity (25A-E) and also AU 41, 42 and 43 are now coded according to criteria of intensity.
The Facial Action Coding System (FACS) is a comprehensive, anatomically based system for describing all visually discernible facial movement. It breaks down facial expressions into individual components of muscle movement, called Action Units (AUs).
A visual reference guide for the Facial Action Coding System (FACS) and beyond, featuring action units (AUs) and their corresponding musculature. Designed for animators, modelers, riggers, sculptors, and researchers.
The facial action coding system (FACS) refers to a research-based system developed by psychologists Ekman and Friesen to deconstruct all facial expressions into a set of basic facial movements called action units (AUs).
FACS is anatomically based and is comprised of 44 distinct Action Units (AUs), which correspond to each motion of the face, along with several sets of head and eye movements and positions.
Defining Action Units. For every muscle contraction, we wrote a precise description of how it changed facial appearance, highlighting what the video recordings depicted. We identified a...
Using FACS, human observers can uniquely break down a facial expression into one or more of AUs that comprise the expression in question including: nine action units in the upper face and 18 in the lower face.
The upper facial Action Units include brow raising (Action Units 1 and 2 for inner and outer edges of the brow respectively), brow lowering (4), eyelid raising (5) and cheek raising (6). Lower facial actions are more complex and include vertical, horizontal, oblique and orbital Action Units.
It has proposed a set of 44 facial action units (AUs) that establish a connection between facial muscle movements and facial expressions (Dahmane & Meunier, 2014), allowing for their simulation.
Facial action units (AUs), as defined in the Facial Action Coding System (FACS), have received significant research interest owing to their diverse range of applications in facial state analysis.
Facial action unit detection is the task of detecting action units from a video of a face - for example, lip tightening and cheek raising.
Facial action unit recognition involves AUs detection (presence/absence), AUs temporal segment detection (onset/apex/offset) and AUs intensity estimation (five-point ordinal scale). We discussed the role of each component, main techniques with their characteristics.
Recent advances in computer vision have allowed for reliable automated facial action coding. Below you can see the 20 Action Units offered in FaceReader as well as some frequently occurring or difficult action unit combinations.
The Facial Action Coding System is a taxonomy for fine-grained facial expression analysis. This paper proposes a method for detecting Facial Action Units (FAU), which de-fine particular face muscle activity, from an input image.
The table below lists most of the possible Action Units (AUs) that are coded for along with with their muscular basis, expression involvement, and model support (not all models are trained to detect all AUs). Most models support a subset of of about 25 AUs corresponding specifically to facial muscles. Additional AUs are part of the FACS system ...
a, for each of the faces (except the two neutral ones), action units were hand-drawn as defined in the Facial Action Coding System. For example, the last face (male, surprised) has been labelled with action unit (AU) 1 “inner brow raiser” in dark green, AU 2 “outer brow raiser” in purple, AU 5 “upper lid raiser” in red and a compound AU 25+26+27: “lips part”, “jaw drop ...
The Facial Action Coding System (FACS) decomposes the facial behavior into 46 action units (AUs), each of which is anatomically related to the contraction of a specific set of facial muscles movement.

Facial expressions exhibit inherent similarities, variability, and complexity. In real-world scenarios, challenges such as partial occlusions, illumination changes, and individual differences further complicate the task of facial expression recognition (FER). To further improve the accuracy of FER, a Multi-head Attention Affinity and Diversity Sharing Network (MAADS) is proposed in this paper ...
