Abstract :
Emotion Recognition and classification is emerging as an inevitable sub-system in human-machine interaction. In this paper, various features like pitch, formant frequencies, intensity, standard deviation, energy and duration have been extracted for emotion recognition and classification. Praat, which is open source scientific software for speech analysis, has been used to extract the features. Epoch count is also used, which is calculated using Zero Frequency Filtering method in MATLAB R2013a. Here, four different emotions namely Neutral, Angry, Happy and Sad are used for analysis. Effect of the above mentioned features on these four emotions have been analyzed and compared. Finally, significance of every feature for different emotions has been studied and analyzed.
