Contents:
Introduction -- Speech Emotion Recognition: A Review -- Emotion Recognition Using Excitation Source Information -- Emotion Recognition Using Vocal Tract Information -- Emotion Recognition Using Prosodic Information -- Summary and Conclusions -- Linear Prediction Analysis of Speech -- MFCC Features -- Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM).
In: Springer eBooksSummary: "Emotion Recognition Using Speech Features" covers emotion-specific features present in speech and discussion of suitable models for capturing emotion-specific information for distinguishing different emotions.  The content of this book is important for designing and developing  natural and sophisticated speech systems. Drs. Rao and Koolagudi lead a discussion of how emotion-specific information is embedded in speech and how to acquire emotion-specific knowledge using appropriate statistical models. Additionally, the authors provide information about using evidence derived from various features and models. The acquired emotion-specific knowledge is useful for synthesizing emotions. Discussion includes global and local prosodic features at syllable, word and phrase levels, helpful for capturing emotion-discriminative information; use of complementary evidences obtained from excitation sources, vocal tract systems and prosodic features in order to enhance the emotion recognition performance;  and proposed multi-stage and hybrid models for improving the emotion recognition performance.
