microexpression

Unlike regular facial expressions, it is difficult to hide microexpression reactions.

Simulated expressions: When a microexpression is not accompanied by a genuine expression.

The likelihood of potential terrorists remaining calm under such questioning is believed to be low (see microexpression).

Julian saw her microexpression of distaste at having to use the word "host," thinking that he, too, disliked the term.

A microexpression is a brief, involuntary facial expression shown on the face of humans according to emotions experienced.

There was much on cloning and life-extension, but very little on the genetic markers for hypersensitivity to facial microexpression.

Both Matsumoto and Ekman now have their own versions of the microexpression training tool, which is available on their websites.

It was called a microexpression, and through their extensive training, U.S. Secret Service agents were the only human beings consistently capable of detecting them.

Another computer-based system for detecting spontaneous microexpression is being developed at Oxford and the University of Oulu by teams directed by Tomas Pfister.

Dr. David Matsumoto explains that one must not conclude that someone is lying if a microexpression is detected but that there is more to the story than is being told.

Most prominently, oculesics play a major role in the Facial Action Coding System (FACS), which is a microexpression database created by Dr. Ekman and his colleagues.

As early as 2001 MPEG-4 included 68 facial animation parameters for lips, jaws, etc., and the field has made significant progress since then and the use of facial microexpression has increased.

In addition to conducting extensive research, Matsumoto, Ekman and Frank created the Microexpression Training Tool (METT 1), the first training tool developed to improve one's ability to read microexpressions.

In each face, a microexpression appears for 40 milliseconds, and the trainee has to press a button to indicate which emotion was in that microexpression: fear, anger, surprise, happiness, sadness, contempt or disgust.

The studies of Paul Ekman, a psychologist who created the Facial Action Coding System (FACS), indicates that a lot of "thin slicing" can be done within seconds by unconsciously analyzing a person's fleeting look called a microexpression.

In the show, Senior Inspector Linus Yiu (Bowie Lam) and his colleagues of West Kowloon Police Headquarter's CID unit use the Facial Action Coding System, body language study, microexpression interpretations, and applied psychology to solve and assist in criminal investigations.
