The INTERSPEECH 2016 Computational Paralinguistics Challenge: Deception, Sincerity & Native Language
نویسندگان
چکیده
The INTERSPEECH 2016 Computational Paralinguistics Challenge addresses three different problems for the first time in research competition under well-defined conditions: classification of deceptive vs. non-deceptive speech, the estimation of the degree of sincerity, and the identification of the native language out of eleven L1 classes of English L2 speakers. In this paper, we describe these sub-challenges, their conditions, the baseline feature extraction and classifiers, and the resulting baselines, as provided to the participants.

Fusing Acoustic Feature Representations for Computational Paralinguistics Tasks
The field of Computational Paralinguistics is rapidly growing and is of interest in various application domains ranging from biomedical engineering to forensics. The INTERSPEECH ComParE challenge series has a field-leading role, introducing novel problems with a common benchmark protocol for comparability. In this work, we tackle all three ComParE 2016 Challenge corpora (Native Language, Sincer...
متن کاملSincerity and Deception in Speech: Two Sides of the Same Coin? A Transfer- and Multi-Task Learning Perspective
In this work, we investigate the coherence between inferable deception and perceived sincerity in speech, as featured in the Deception and Sincerity tasks of the INTERSPEECH 2016 Computational Paralinguistics ChallengE (ComParE). We demonstrate an effective approach that combines the corpora of both Challenge tasks to achieve higher classification accuracy. We show that the naı̈ve label mapping ...
متن کاملIs Deception Emotional? An Emotion-Driven Predictive Approach
In this paper, we propose a method for automatically detecting deceptive speech by relying on predicted scores derived from emotion dimensions such as arousal, valence, regulation, and emotion categories. The scores are derived from task-dependent models trained on the GEMEP emotional speech database. Inputs from the INTERSPEECH 2016 Computational Paralinguistics Deception sub-challenge are pro...
متن کاملConvolutional Neural Networks with Data Augmentation for Classifying Speakers' Native Language
We use a feedforward Convolutional Neural Network to classify speakers’ native language for the INTERSPEECH 2016 Computational Paralinguistic Challenge Native Language SubChallenge, using no specialized features for computational paralinguistics tasks, but only MFCCs with their first and second order deltas. In addition, we augment the training data by replacing the original examples with short...
متن کاملWithin-Speaker Features for Native Language Recognition in the Interspeech 2016 Computational Paralinguistics Challenge
The Interspeech 2016 Native Language recognition challenge was to identify the first language of 867 speakers from their spoken English. Effectively this was an L2 accent recognition task where the L1 was one of eleven languages. The lack of transcripts of the spontaneous speech recordings meant that the currently best performing accent recognition approach (ACCDIST) developed by the author cou...
