While there has been marked progress in pushing the state-of-the-art of theses methods on benchmark multimodal data sets, such as the Multimodal EmotionLines Dataset (MELD), the advances still seem to lag behind what has been achieved in the domain of mainstream Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and NLU applications and we were unable to identify any widely used products, services or production-ready systems that would enable the user to reliably detect emotions from audio recordings of multi-party conversations. Published, state-of-the-art scientific studies of multi-view emotion recognition seem to take it for granted that a human-generated or edited transcript is available as input to the NLU modules, providing no information of what happens in a realistic application scenario, where audio only is available and the NLU processing has to rely on text generated by ASR. Motivated by this insight, we present a study designed to evaluate the possibility of applying widely-used state-of-the-art commercial ASR products as the initial audio processing component in an emotion-from-speech detection system. We propose an approach which relies on commercially available products and services, such as Google Speech-to-Text, Mozilla DeepSpeech and the NVIDIA NeMo toolkit to process the audio and applies state-of-the-art NLU approaches for emotion recognition, in order to quickly create a robust, production-ready emotion-from-speech detection system applicable to multi-party conversations.","PeriodicalId":142947,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1st International Workshop on Multimodal Conversational AI","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114510811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is caused by irregular disruptions in speech production. These interruptions occur in various forms and frequencies. Repetition of words or parts of words, prolongations, or blocks in getting the words out are the most common ones. Accurate detection and classification of stuttering would be important in the assessment of severity for speech therapy. Furthermore, real time detection might create many new possibilities to facilitate reconstruction into fluent speech. Such an interface could help people to utilize voice-based interfaces like Apple Siri and Google Assistant, or to make (video) phone calls more fluent by delayed delivery. In this paper we present the first expandable audio-visual database of stuttered speech. We explore an end-to-end, real-time, multi-modal model for detection and classification of stuttered blocks in unbound speech. We also make use of video signals since acoustic signals cannot be produced immediately. We use multiple modalities as acoustic signals together with secondary characteristics exhibited in visual signals will permit an increased accuracy of detection.","PeriodicalId":142947,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 1st International Workshop on Multimodal Conversational AI","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131247702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
