Behind Hume’s Expression Measurement Models for Face and Voice
Editor's note: This post covers the science, development and evaluation of Hume’s state of the art Expression API, that enables developers to enrich their applications or research pipelines with real-time measurement of voice and facial expressions. Facial expressions and vocal tone are central to how we communicate. They convey emotions such as amusement, interest, frustration, and surprise, often without naming those feelings in words. Understanding these signals is part of how we connect with one another and respond to what others express.

Introducing Expression APIs: Give your AI more of what people mean
Human communication carries meaning beyond words. A change in tone, a hesitant delivery, or a surprised expression can change how we understand what someone says, and how we respond. Consider “I can’t believe it.” After good news, those words might convey excitement. After a setback, they might express frustration. During a playful exchange, they might communicate amusement. When AI applications hear these words in any of these contexts, the words they transcribe stay exactly the same.
