SummaryHumans inherently focus on the face to understand other people’s emotional states. Facial expressions are used to communicate worldwide, making them innate and universal. This essay addresses the various ways in which the brain processes facial information. Specific evidence is given for the part-based, gestalt and configurable models. Evidence presented also analyzes the time frame for processing identification, gaze, and expression. This essay also grapples with categorical emotion perception as opposed to two dimensional emotion theories. Computational models shed light on the inner workings of our perception of emotion in categories.
