Abstract

Emotion plays an important role to assess individual reaction and responses depends on the degree of encounter, scenario and experience. In this paper, the study examines the emotions of the five (5) randomly selected students according to the Basic Emotions and Non-Basic Emotions while performing their Java Programming activity task. The study utilized RaspberryPi and Smartphone to capture an image, OpenCV application to analyze the image and application of algorithms: the Fisherfaces, Local Binary Pattern Histogram and Eigenfaces to determine the most like emotion. In this study, the Fisherfaces algorithm showed the highest average accuracy rate of 47.93% among the algorithms. Specifically marked an emotion of “happy and surprise” with accuracy rate of 100% which means that the students perform the activity with knowledge and skills. This result can be used by the experts to consider the emotion as part of assessment hence it may also serve as a tool for effective decision making.
