Zusammenfassung

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) denote multilayer artificial neural networks with more than one hidden layer and millions of free parameters. We propose a Generalized Discriminant Analysis (GerDA) based on DNNs to learn discriminative features of low dimension optimized with respect to a fast classification from a large set of acoustic features for emotion recognition. On nine frequently used emotional speech corpora, we compare the performance of GerDA features and their subsequent linear classification with previously reported benchmarks obtained using the same set of acoustic features classified by Support Vector Machines (SVMs). Our results impressively show that low-dimensional GerDA features capture hidden information from the acoustic features leading to a significantly raised unweighted average recall and considerably raised weighted average recall.
