The technology can be used to find the 'best matches' in customer service, dating or online tutoring.
The article, "Assessing the Big Five personality traits using real-life static facial images," will be published on May 22 in Scientific Reports.
Physiognomists from Ancient Greece to Cesare Lombroso have tried to link facial appearance to personality, but the majority of their ideas failed to withstand the scrutiny of modern science. The few established associations of specific facial features with personality traits, such as facial width-to-height ratio, are quite weak.
