Abstract

The research community's ever-increasing interest in studying human-computer interactions (HCI), systems deducing, and identifying a speech signal's emotional aspects has emerged as a hot research topic. Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) has brought the development of automated and intelligent analysis of human ut-terances to reality. Typically, an SER system focuses on extracting the features from speech signals such as pitch frequency, formant features, energy-related and spectral features, tailing it with a classification quest to understand the underlying emotion. The key issues pivotal for a successful SER system are driven by the proper selection of proper emotional feature extraction techniques. In this paper, Mel-frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) and Teager Energy Operator (TEO) along with a new proposed Feature Fusion of MFCC and TEO referred to as Teager-MFCC (TMFCC) is examined over a multilingual database consisting of English, German and Hindi languages. Deep Neural Networks have been used to classify the different emotions considered, happy, sad, angry, and neutral. Eval-uation results show that the proposed fusion TMFCC with a recognition rate of 92.7% outperforms TEO and MFCC. With TEO and MFCC configurations, the recognition rate has been found as 88.5% and 90.0%, respectively.
