Abstract

The brain computations that underlie our ability to recognize facial expressions involve the extraction of relevant information from the faces of our peers, and allow us to readily respond in an appropriate manner to the displayed emotion. Here we present recent advances in understanding the brain processes underlying the categorization of facial expressions of emotion using classification image techniques to link both the brain dynamics (EEG) and the behavioural strategies of three observers with specific facial features.
