Asterisks indicate AUs determined to be reliable and pain relevant based on these data. Reliability is measured in Cohen’s kappa values. Recall (eg, sensitivity) was calculated as the number of true positives divided by the sum of true positives and false negatives. Precision (eg, positive predictive value) was calculated as the number of true positives divided by the sum of true and false positives. The last four columns present the proportion of expressions demonstrating the presence of a given AU in pain-categorized and non–pain-categorized expressions, split by manual and automated coding. Values within a coding set with the different subscripts are significantly different from each other (P < 0.05; a > b).
AU, action unit; FACS, Facial Action Coding System.
