Hi! I'd like to work on this issue under GSSoC 2026.
Approach: I will build a real-time face emotion detection system using OpenCV for face detection and a fine-tuned mini-Xception CNN trained on the FER-2013 dataset to classify emotions (happy, sad, angry, surprised, neutral, fear, disgust), with a live webcam feed and bounding-box overlay.
I have experience with Python. Please assign me this issue.
