Abstract The global optical flow feature extraction algorithm based on gradient is studied to improve the effect of micro-expression recognition. To solve the problem of large displacement between fine images, the multi-resolution strategy is introduced to slice the images, and the iterative reweighted least squares method is used to optimize the objective function layer by layer. Thus, the optimal optical flow is obtained, and the accuracy of motion tracking is ensured. To reflect the action differences in key parts of faces, a partition feature statistic method is proposed. The optical flow image is divided into a number of rectangular regions and in these regions the optical flow motion is concluded. Consequently, the effectiveness of the feature is enhanced. The experimental results show that overall recognition accuracy and discrimination of emotion categories are significantly improved.
