The ICML Expressive Vocalizations (ExVo) Multi-task challenge 2022, focuses on understanding the emotional facets of the non-linguistic vocalizations (vocal bursts (VB)). The objective of this challenge is to predict emotional intensities…
We present Burst2Vec, our multi-task learning approach to predict emotion, age, and origin (i.e., native country/language) from vocal bursts. Burst2Vec utilises pre-trained speech representations to capture acoustic information from raw…
This technical report presents the modeling approaches used in our submission to the ICML Expressive Vocalizations Workshop & Competition multitask track (ExVo-MultiTask). We first applied image classification models of various sizes on…
In this paper, we demonstrated the benefit of using pre-trained model to extract acoustic embedding to jointly predict (multitask learning) three tasks: emotion, age, and native country. The pre-trained model was trained with wav2vec 2.0…
We propose a novel Dynamic Restrained Uncertainty Weighting Loss to experimentally handle the problem of balancing the contributions of multiple tasks on the ICML ExVo 2022 Challenge. The multitask aims to recognize expressed emotions and…
Speech emotion recognition (SER) has received a great deal of attention in recent years in the context of spontaneous conversations. While there have been notable results on datasets like the well known corpus of naturalistic dyadic…
This study investigates fine-tuning self-supervised learn ing (SSL) models using multi-task learning (MTL) to enhance speech emotion recognition (SER). The framework simultane ously handles four related tasks: emotion recognition, gender…
Due to its ability to accurately predict emotional state using multimodal features, audiovisual emotion recognition has recently gained more interest from researchers. This paper proposes two methods to predict emotional attributes from…
Recently, self-supervised pre-training has shown significant improvements in many areas of machine learning, including speech and NLP. We propose using large self-supervised pre-trained models for both audio and text modality with…
The ICML Expressive Vocalization (ExVo) Competition is focused on understanding and generating vocal bursts: laughs, gasps, cries, and other non-verbal vocalizations that are central to emotional expression and communication. ExVo 2022,…
We present an emotion recognition system for nonverbal vocalizations (NVs) submitted to the ExVo Few-Shot track of the ICML Expressive Vocalizations Competition 2022. The proposed method uses self-supervised learning (SSL) models to extract…
Self-supervised learning methods such as wav2vec 2.0 have shown promising results in learning speech representations from unlabelled and untranscribed speech data that are useful for speech recognition. Since these representations are…
Speech forensic tasks (SFTs), such as automatic speaker recognition (ASR), speech emotion recognition (SER), gender recognition (GR), and age estimation (AE), find use in different security and biometric applications. Previous works have…
Training SER models in natural, spontaneous speech is especially challenging due to the subtle expression of emotions and the unpredictable nature of real-world audio. In this paper, we present a robust system for the INTERSPEECH 2025…
In this research, we introduce a novel methodology for assessing Emotional Mimicry Intensity (EMI) as part of the 6th Workshop and Competition on Affective Behavior Analysis in-the-wild. Our methodology utilises the Wav2Vec 2.0…
Vocal bursts play an important role in communicating affect, making them valuable for improving speech emotion recognition. Here, we present our approach for classifying vocal bursts and predicting their emotional significance in the ACII…
In this paper, we present our solutions for emotion recognition in the sub-challenges of Multimodal Emotion Recognition Challenge (MER2024). To mitigate the modal competition issue between audio and text, we adopt an early fusion strategy…
The interpretation of human voices holds importance across various applications. This study ventures into predicting age, gender, and emotion from vocal cues, a field with vast applications. Voice analysis tech advancements span domains,…
In this paper, we propose MMER, a novel Multimodal Multi-task learning approach for Speech Emotion Recognition. MMER leverages a novel multimodal network based on early-fusion and cross-modal self-attention between text and acoustic…
Due to the complex nature of human emotions and the diversity of emotion representation methods in humans, emotion recognition is a challenging field. In this research, three input modalities, namely text, audio (speech), and video, are…
