  Differently from computer vision systems which require explicit supervision,
humans can learn facial expressions by observing people in their environment.
In this paper, we look at how similar capabilities could be developed in
machine vision. As a starting point, we consider the problem of relating facial
expressions to objectively measurable events occurring in videos. In
particular, we consider a gameshow in which contestants play to win significant
sums of money. We extract events affecting the game and corresponding facial
expressions objectively and automatically from the videos, obtaining large
quantities of labelled data for our study. We also develop, using benchmarks
such as FER and SFEW 2.0, state-of-the-art deep neural networks for facial
expression recognition, showing that pre-training on face verification data can
be highly beneficial for this task. Then, we extend these models to use facial
expressions to predict events in videos and learn nameable expressions from
them. The dataset and emotion recognition models are available at
