abstract = "More than 500 painful interventions are carried out during the
hospitalisation of a newborn baby in a neonatal intensive care
unit. Since neonates are not able to verbally communicate pain,
some studies have been done to identify the presence and intensity
of pain by behavioural analysis, mainly by facial expression.
These studies allow a better understanding of this painful
experience faced by the neonate. In this context, this work
proposes and implements a mobile application for smartphones that
uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques to automatically
identify the facial expression of pain in neonates, presenting
feasibility in real clinical situations. Firstly, a Convolutional
Neural Network architecture was adapted and trained with face
images captured before and after painful clinical procedures
carried out routinely. Then, this computational model was
optimised to a mobile environment to make it practical for
everyday use. Moreover, we used an explainable AI method to
identify facial regions that might be relevant to pain assessment.
Our results showed that is possible to classify the facial
expression of the pain of neonates with high accuracy.
Additionally, our methodology presented novel results highlighting
as well sound facial regions that agree with pain scales used by
neonatologists and with the visual perception of adults when
assessing pain in neonates, whether they are health professionals
or not.",
