Discriminating Emotions in the Valence Dimension from Speech Using Timbre Features

Applied Sciences, 2019
The most used and well-known acoustic features of a speech signal, the Mel frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC), cannot characterize emotions in speech sufficiently when a classification is performed to classify both discrete emotions (i.e., anger ...
