Type of emotion such as joy, sad, and angry have been known for a long time and become an important aspect of human behavior. In the recent years, there is an increasing body of research on understanding the human emotions.

The proposed methods classify the emotional affinity of sentences from text input and to express associated emotions visually through a face of virtual character. This model is able to show facial expressions with admixture blending emotions. As a demonstration, examples of facial expressions with corresponding text input as results from the implementation of our model are shown
