Emotions often facilitate interactions among human beings, but the big variation of human emotional states make a negative effect on the reliable emotion recognition. We propose a novel algorithm to extract common features for each type of emotional states which can reliably present human emotions. To uncover the common features from uncertain emotional states, the backward cloud generator is used to discover { Ex , En , He } by integrating randomness and fuzziness. Finally, the proposed method for emotion recognition is verified on the common facial expression datasets, the Extended Cohn-Kanade (CK+) dataset and the Japanese female facial expression (JAFFE). The results are satisfactory, which shows cloud model is potentially useful in pattern recognition and machines learning.
