Abstract

Advancements in e-learning coupled with the recent pandemic has resulted in a paradigm shift when it comes to remote-based education. Whilst this has its benefits the most important being the continuation of the curriculum there are various risks posed to younger learners. Their exposure to a wide variety of content including that with malicious intent poses a serious risk to the emotional well being of children and is a concern for parents. This chapter presents online child emotion recognition framework enabling parents to monitor their childs well-being whilst engaging with online content. The framework is a result of breakthroughs in deep learning for facilitating the development of lightweight convolutional neural networks that can be deployed without the need for specific hardware requiring Graphical Processing Units. The chapter also covers the security concerns presenting an offline rather than a cloud-based inference mechanism.
