This paper addresses the problem of emotion recognition from physiological signals. Features are extracted and ranked based on their effect on classification accuracy. Different classifiers are compared. The inter-subject variability and the personalization effect are thoroughly investigated, through trial-based and su…
Bardo Composer generates tabletop RPG music based on player speech.
Tactile enhanced multimedia is generated by synchronizing traditional multimedia clips, to generate hot and cold air effect, with an electric heater and a fan. This objective is to give viewers a more realistic and immersing feel of the multimedia content. The response to this enhanced multimedia content (mulsemedia) i…
Electroencephalography (EEG) is a useful way to implicitly monitor the users perceptual state during multimedia consumption. One of the primary challenges for the practical use of EEG-based monitoring is to achieve a satisfactory level of accuracy in EEG classification. Connectivity between different brain regions is a…
Recently, generative adversarial networks and adversarial autoencoders have gained a lot of attention in machine learning community due to their exceptional performance in tasks such as digit classification and face recognition. They map the autoencoder's bottleneck layer output (termed as code vectors) to different no…
Self-supervised ECG learning improves emotion recognition.
Recently the deep learning techniques have achieved success in multi-label classification due to its automatic representation learning ability and the end-to-end learning framework. Existing deep neural networks in multi-label classification can be divided into two kinds: binary relevance neural network (BRNN) and thre…
Identifying emotion from speech is a non-trivial task pertaining to the ambiguous definition of emotion itself. In this work, we adopt a feature-engineering based approach to tackle the task of speech emotion recognition. Formalizing our problem as a multi-class classification problem, we compare the performance of two…
Automatic prediction of emotion promises to revolutionise human-computer interaction. Recent trends involve fusion of multiple data modalities - audio, visual, and physiological - to classify emotional state. However, in practice, collection of physiological data `in the wild' is currently limited to heartbeat time ser…
Deep learning is popular as an end-to-end framework extracting the prominent features and performing the classification also. In this paper, we extensively investigate deep networks as an alternate to feature encoding technique of low level descriptors for emotion recognition on the benchmark EmoDB dataset. Fusion perf…
Long short-term memory (LSTM) is normally used in recurrent neural network (RNN) as basic recurrent unit. However,conventional LSTM assumes that the state at current time step depends on previous time step. This assumption constraints the time dependency modeling capability. In this study, we propose a new variation of…
In this work, we train fully convolutional networks to detect anger in speech. Since training these deep architectures requires large amounts of data and the size of emotion datasets is relatively small, we use transfer learning. However, unlike previous approaches that use speech or emotion-based tasks for the source …

Current multi-reference style transfer models for Text-to-Speech (TTS) perform sub-optimally on disjoints datasets, where one dataset contains only a single style class for one of the style dimensions. These models generally fail to produce style transfer for the dimension that is underrepresented in the dataset. In th…
