Abstract

Research in emotion recognition seeks to develop insights into the temporal properties of emotion. However, automatic emotion recognition from spontaneous speech is challenging due to non-ideal recording conditions and highly ambiguous ground truth labels. Further, emotion recognition systems typically work with noisy high-dimensional data, rendering it difficult to find representative features and train an effective classifier. We tackle this problem by using Deep Belief Networks, which can model complex and non-linear high-level relationships between low-level features. We propose and evaluate a suite of hybrid classifiers based on Hidden Markov Models and Deep Belief Networks. We achieve state-of-the-art results on FAU Aibo, a benchmark dataset in emotion recognition [1]. Our work provides insights into important similarities and differences between speech and emotion.
