FER+ (Face Expression Recognition Plus dataset)

Introduced by Emad Barsoum et al. in Training Deep Networks for Facial Expression Recognition with Crowd-Sourced Label Distribution1 Jan 2016 archive 2025-07-28

The FER+ dataset is an extension of the original FER dataset, where the images have been re-labelled into one of 8 emotion types: neutral, happiness, surprise, sadness, anger, disgust, fear, and contempt.

15 shown of 15 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 124. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
