• Abstract summary: We present a Multi-Window Data Augmentation (MWA-SER) approach for speech emotion recognition. MWA-SER is a unimodal approach that focuses on two key concepts; designing the speech augmentation method and building the deep learning model. We show that our augmentation method, combined with a deep learning model, improves speech emotion recognition performance.

• Abstract: We present a Multi-Window Data Augmentation (MWA-SER) approach for speech emotion recognition. MWA-SER is a unimodal approach that focuses on two key concepts; designing the speech augmentation method and building the deep learning model to recognize the underlying emotion of an audio signal. Our proposed multi-window augmentation approach generates additional data samples from the speech signal by employing multiple window sizes in the audio feature extraction process. We show that our augmentation method, combined with a deep learning model, improves speech emotion recognition performance. We evaluate the performance of our approach on three benchmark datasets: IEMOCAP, SAVEE, and RAVDESS. We show that the multi-window model improves the SER performance and outperforms a single-window model. The notion of finding the best window size is an essential step in audio feature extraction. We perform extensive experimental evaluations to find the best window choice and explore the windowing effect for SER analysis.

  Voice Activity Detection (VAD) is the process of automatically determining whether a person is speaking and identifying the timing of their speech. We introduce a novel approach leveraging Contrastive Language-Image Pretraining (CLIP) models. Our approach outperforms several audio-visual methods despite its simplicity, and without requiring pre-training on extensive audio-visual datasets.
