Emotions play a critical role in our everyday lives by altering how we perceive, process and respond to our environment. Affective computing aims to instill in computers the ability to detect and act on the emotions of human actors. A core…

Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) affective technology enables the intelligent embedded devices to interact with sensitivity. Similarly, call centre employees recognise customers' emotions from their pitch, energy, and tone of voice so as to…

Speech emotion recognition (SER) often experiences reduced performance due to background noise. In addition, making a prediction on signals with only background noise could undermine user trust in the system. In this study, we propose a…

The face expression is the first thing we pay attention to when we want to understand a person's state of mind. Thus, the ability to recognize facial expressions in an automatic way is a very interesting research field. In this paper,…

In real-time speech recognition applications, the latency is an important issue. We have developed a character-level incremental speech recognition (ISR) system that responds quickly even during the speech, where the hypotheses are…

Emotion recognition has become an important field of research in the human-computer interactions domain. The latest advancements in the field show that combining visual with audio information lead to better results if compared to the case…

Emotion recognition in speech presents a complex multimodal challenge, requiring comprehension of both linguistic content and vocal expressivity, particularly prosodic features such as fundamental frequency, intensity, and temporal…

Speech emotion recognition (SER) classifies audio into emotion categories such as Happy, Angry, Fear, Disgust and Neutral. While Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) is a common application for popular languages, it continues to be a problem…

Knowledge of users' emotion states helps improve human-computer interaction. In this work, we presented EmoNet, an emotion detector of Chinese daily dialogues based on deep convolutional neural networks. In order to maintain the original…

This study presents a novel transfer learning approach and data augmentation technique for mental stability classification using human voice signals and addresses the challenges associated with limited data availability. Convolutional…

Data augmentation is a widely used strategy for training robust machine learning models. It partially alleviates the problem of limited data for tasks like speech emotion recognition (SER), where collecting data is expensive and…

Audio Sentiment Analysis is a popular research area which extends the conventional text-based sentiment analysis to depend on the effectiveness of acoustic features extracted from speech. However, current progress on audio sentiment…

Emotions (e.g., Joy, Anger) are prevalent in daily software engineering (SE) activities, and are known to be significant indicators of work productivity (e.g., bug fixing efficiency). Recent studies have shown that directly applying general…

Analysis of speech for recognition of stress is important for identification of emotional state of person. This can be done using 'Linear Techniques', which has different parameters like pitch, vocal tract spectrum, formant frequencies,…

Speech emotion recognition is an important aspect of human-computer interaction. Prior work proposes various end-to-end models to improve the classification performance. However, most of them rely on the cross-entropy loss together with…

Decoding the speech signal that a person is listening to from the human brain via electroencephalography (EEG) can help us understand how our auditory system works. Linear models have been used to reconstruct the EEG from speech or vice…

Emotions lie on a broad continuum and treating emotions as a discrete number of classes limits the ability of a model to capture the nuances in the continuum. The challenge is how to describe the nuances of emotions and how to enable a…

Data augmentation has proven to be a promising prospect in improving the performance of deep learning models by adding variability to training data. In previous work with developing a noise robust acoustic-to-articulatory speech inversion…

Inferring emotion status from users' queries plays an important role to enhance the capacity in voice dialogues applications. Even though several related works obtained satisfactory results, the performance can still be further improved. In…

Facial expressions are one of the most powerful ways for depicting specific patterns in human behavior and describing human emotional state. Despite the impressive advances of affective computing over the last decade, automatic video-based…
