Music Emotion Detection Using Hierarchical Sparse Kernel Machines

چکیده
For music emotion detection, this paper presents a music emotion verification system based on hierarchical sparse kernel machines. With the proposed system, we intend to verify if a music clip possesses happiness emotion or not. There are two levels in the hierarchical sparse kernel machines. In the first level, a set of acoustical features are extracted, and principle component analysis (PCA) is implemented to reduce the dimension. The acoustical features are utilized to generate the first-level decision vector, which is a vector with each element being a significant value of an emotion. The significant values of eight main emotional classes are utilized in this paper. To calculate the significant value of an emotion, we construct its 2-class SVM with calm emotion as the global (non-target) side of the SVM. The probability distributions of the adopted acoustical features are calculated and the probability product kernel is applied in the first-level SVMs to obtain first-level decision vector feature. In the second level of the hierarchical system, we merely construct a 2-class relevance vector machine (RVM) with happiness as the target side and other emotions as the background side of the RVM. The first-level decision vector is used as the feature with conventional radial basis function kernel. The happiness verification threshold is built on the probability value. In the experimental results, the detection error tradeoff (DET) curve shows that the proposed system has a good performance on verifying if a music clip reveals happiness emotion.

Building sparse representations and structure determination on LS-SVM substrates
This paper studies a method to obtain sparseness and structure detection for a class of kernel machines related to Least Squares Support Vector Machines (LS-SVMs). The key method to derive such kernel machines is to adopt an hierarchical modeling strategy. Here, the first level consists of an LS-SVM substrate which is based upon an LS-SVM formulation with additive regularization trade-off. This...

متن کاملEvaluation of Musical Features for Emotion Classification
Because music conveys and evokes feelings, a wealth of research has been performed on music emotion recognition. Previous research has shown that musical mood is linked to features based on rhythm, timbre, spectrum and lyrics. For example, sad music correlates with slow tempo, while happy music is generally faster. However, only limited success has been obtained in learning automatic classifier...

متن کاملAutomatic Detection of Emotion in Music: Interaction with Emotionally Sensitive Machines
Creating emotionally sensitive machines will significantly enhance the interaction between humans and machines. In this chapter we focus on enabling this ability for music. Music is extremely powerful to induce emotions. If machines can somehow apprehend emotions in music, it gives them a relevant competence to communicate with humans. In this chapter we review the theories of music and emotion...
