Emotional Finnish Speech: Evidence from Automatic Classification Experiments
نویسنده
چکیده
Emotional Finnish speech: a contradiction in terms? Stereotypical views aside, emotional expression does exist in spoken Finnish, as in all languages. The vocal repertoire may be somewhat more limited than in some other languages, Finnish hardly being an intonation language par excellence, but recent evidence shows that, at least at the nonintonational level, there are systematic vocal features of emotion in spoken Finnish. In this paper, research on this area is reviewed.

متن کاملSpeech Emotion Recognition Based on Power Normalized Cepstral Coefficients in Noisy Conditions
Automatic recognition of speech emotional states in noisy conditions has become an important research topic in the emotional speech recognition area, in recent years. This paper considers the recognition of emotional states via speech in real environments. For this task, we employ the power normalized cepstral coefficients (PNCC) in a speech emotion recognition system. We investigate its perfor...
