In order to automate this, we have been developing software that recognizes an abnormal impact vibrational response due to corrosion. This software extracts sonograms from impact vibrational waves using the LPC spectrum analysis, and matches images of the sonogram between a standard and an input impact vibrations using the Two-dimensional Geometric Distance. Then, the software distinguishes the abnormality of the input impact vibration using Wilcoxon rank-sum test. We have measured the impact vibrations of five normal signposts and five abnormal signposts, and carried out the automatic recognition experiments. As a result, the software has recognized correctly in all cases. We have verified the effectiveness of the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":259975,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Natural Language Processing and Knowledge Engineering(NLPKE-2010)","volume":"191 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116781424","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}

Although there has been much research on emotions or feelings in voice, definitions of these terms have been inconsistent. We reviewed previous papers in linguistics, brain science, information science, etc. and developed specific definitions for these term. In our paper, “emotion” is defined as an involuntary reaction in the human brain; it has two states: pleasure and displeasure. “Feeling” (e.g., anger, enjoyment, sadness, fear, and distress) is defined as a state voluntarily resulting from an emotion. Here, we should notice that the pleasure-displeasure direction does not always correspond to the feeling. So, our objective is to obtain sufficient amount of voice data and to analyze the relationship between emotions and feelings. In voice recording experiments, the voice database from about 100 participants with various natural feelings was constructed. A result of descriptive analysis showed that pleasure-displeasure direction did not correspond to the each feeling in 5% of voice data. This result suggested that, if an experimental situation is constructed that tends to arouse various feelings, data with less variability can be obtained. Further analysis of the characteristics of the data obtained to identify situations in which the pleasure-displeasure direction does not necessarily correspond to the basic feeling should lead to improved accuracy of voice emotion recognition.","PeriodicalId":259975,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Natural Language Processing and Knowledge Engineering(NLPKE-2010)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124413153","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}

This linear time-complexity is achieved through our new language-independent anchor finding algorithm which enables us to align as a big parallel text as a whole book in a single attempt and with a high accuracy.

In this paper, a fractionation training approach is proposed, utilizing the emotion lexicon extracted from an annotated blog emotion corpus to train SVM classifiers.

Aim to solving the semantics deficiency problem in traditional methods for Chinese text classification, this paper implements a text classification method on classifying a blog as joy, angry, sad or fear using a simple unsupervised learning algorithm. The classification of a blog text is predicted by the max semantic orientation (SO) of the phrases in the blog text that contains adjectives or adverbs. In this paper, the SO of a phrase is calculated as the mutual information between the given phrase and the polar words. Then the SO of the given blog text is determined by the max mutual information value. A blog text is classified as joy if the SO of its phrases is joy. Two different corpora are adopted to test our method, one is the Blog corpus collected by Monitor and Research Center for National Language Resource Network Multimedia Sub-branch Center, and the other is Chinese dataset provided by COAE2008 task. Based on the two datasets, the method respectively achieves a high improvement compared to the traditional methods.","PeriodicalId":259975,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Natural Language Processing and Knowledge Engineering(NLPKE-2010)","volume":"96 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116011509","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}
