Abstract: The proposed invention presents a mood-based music recommendation system that uses artificial intelligence and facial emotion recognition to deliver personalized music suggestions based on a user-ti’ms e reaeml otional state. The system captures facial expressions through a webcam and analyzes them using computer vision and machine learning techniques to detect emotions such as happiness, sadness, anger, or neutrality. Based on the identified emotion, it maps the mood to an appropriate music category and automatically recommends and plays songs through integration with platforms like Spotify. By eliminating the need for manual song selection, the system provides real-time, automated recommendations tailored to the user’s current m oinocod. rpItorates technologies such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Facial Emotion Recognition (FER), and API-based music streaming to create an intelligent and user-friendly application. Additionally, the system adapts to dynamic emotional changes, improving personalization and user engagement over time. Overall, this approach enhances traditional music recommendation methods by integrating real-time emotion detection, offering a more interactive and satisfying user experience while also supporting emotional well-being through mood-appropriate music delivery.
