Bimodal emotion recognition
L.C. De Silva, Pei Chi Ng · 2002
This paper describes the use of statistical techniques and hidden Markov models (HMM) in the recognition of emotions. The method aims to classify 6 basic emotions (anger, dislike, fear, happiness, sadness and surprise) from both facial expressions (video) and emotional speech (audio). The emotions of 2 human subjects were recorded and analyzed. The findings show that the audio and video information can be combined using a rule-based system to improve the recognition rate.
