This paper presents a technique for synthesizing emotional speech based on an emotion-independent model which is called “average emotion” model. The average emotion model is trained using a multi-emotion speech database. Applying a MLLR-based model adaptation method, we can transform the average emotion model to present the target emotion which is not included in the training data. A multi-emot...

Abstract   Recent developments in robotics automation have motivated researchers to improve the efficiency of interactive systems by making a natural man-machine interaction. Since speech is the most popular method of communication, recognizing human emotions from speech signal becomes a challenging research topic known as Speech Emotion Recognition (SER). In this study, we propose a Persian em...

In this paper, we proposed a new feature extraction method for emotion recognition based on the knowledge of the emotion production mechanism in physiology. It was reported by physiacoustist that emotional speech is differently encoded from the normal speech in terms of articulation organs and that emotion information in speech is concentrated in different frequencies caused by the different mo...

The main goal of our project is to identify the emotions a speaker evokes when speaking. For example, utterances uttered in states fear, surprise, excite- ment, anger, or joy are loud and fast have large wide pitch range, whereas depression fatigue slow deep. This us We use deep learning techniques build models that can human through analysis speech language patterns. reason for choosing this s...

In recent years, emotion recognition has attracted extensive interest in signal processing, artificial intelligence and pattern recognition due to its potential applications to human-computer-interaction (HCI). Most previously published works in the field of emotion recognition devote to performing emotion recognition by using either affective speech or facial expression. However, Affective spe...

Speech emotion recognition is currently an active research subject and has attracted extensive interest in the science community due to its vital application to human‐robot interaction. Most speech emotion recognition systems employ high‐dimensional speech features, indicating human emotion expression, to improve emotion recognition performance. To effectively reduce t...

speech emotion recognition (ser) is a new and challenging research area with a wide range of applications in man-machine interactions. the aim of a ser system is to recognize human emotion by analyzing the acoustics of speech sound. in this study, we propose spectral pattern features (sps) and harmonic energy features (hes) for emotion recognition. these features extracted from the spectrogram ...
