Abstract: Facial Emotion Recognition (FER) is a powerful tool for gaining insights into human behaviour and well-being by precisely quantifying a wide range of emotions especially stress, through the analysis of facial images. Detecting stress using FER entails meticulously examining subtle facial cues, such as changes in eye movements, brow furrowing, lip tightening, and muscle contractions. To assure effectiveness and real-time processing, FER approaches based on deep learning and artificial intelligence (AI) techniques was created using edge modules. This research introduces a novel approach for identifying stress, leveraging the Conv-XGBoost Algorithm to analyse facial emotions. The proposed model sustain rigorous evaluation techniques, for employing key metrics examination such as the F1 score, validation accuracy, precision, and recall rate to assess its real-world reliability and robustness. This comprehensive analysis and validation proved the model’s practical utility in facial analysis. Integrating the Conv-XGBoost Algorithm with facial emotion analysis represents a promising and highly accurate solution for efficient stress detection. The method surpasses existing literature and demonstrate significant potential for practical applications based on well-validated data.
