Abstract: 
This study proposes an advanced real-time mood prediction system that utilizes Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and webcam-based Region of Interest (ROI) extraction. By employing MATLAB and its Computer Vision Toolbox, the system detects and preprocesses facial regions from live webcam feeds to accurately predict an individual’s mood. The performance of this system is validated using a custom dataset, showcasing its potential for applications in human-computer interaction, psychological assessments, and real-time monitoring. This approach highlights a significant advancement in combining AI and image processing for real-time emotional analysis.
