Abstract

Speech processing has emerged as one among the most important application areas of digital signal processing. In the present world, the speech processing has become essential for technological developments in various aspects and this technology is also incorporated in many gadgets. Emotion-based recognition is where the emotion of the person is identified from the differences in stress and other properties of speech. The features such as intensity, formants, bandwidth, and pitch vary with the change in emotion. These changes are identified, and the emotion is recognized with respect to the average value in that particular emotion. This project aims to recognize the emotion in Telugu language. The speeches of different speakers are collected for the same sentence in three different emotions (happy, neutral, and bore), and various features are extracted from these collected speeches. Finally, an algorithm is proposed to recognize the emotion based on the features extracted. Its applications are access control, transaction authentication, law enforcement, etc. The recognition accuracy to recognize the emotion of the speaker is 79%.
