Emotions often play the role of a sensitive catalyst, which fosters lively interaction between human beings. Over the past few decades the focus of researchers on study of the emotional content of speech signals, has progressively increased. Many systems have been proposed to make the Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) process more correct and accurate. The objective of our research is to classify speech emotion implementing a comparatively new method-i-vector model. i-vector model has found much success in the areas of speaker identification, speech recognition and language identification. But it has not been much explored in recognition of emotion. This paper discusses the design of a speech emotion recognition system considering three important aspects. Firstly, i-vector model was implemented in processing extracted features for speech representation. Secondly, an appropriate classification scheme was designed using Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) adaptation and i-vector algorithm. Finally, the performance of this new system was evaluated using emotional speech database. Speech emotions were identified with this novel system and also with a conventional system and results were compared, which proved that our proposed system can identify speech emotions with less error and more accuracy.","PeriodicalId":417235,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Computational Science and Computational Intelligence (CSCI)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130309817","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}

Moreover, analyzes were carried out, by simulations and experiments. Parameters such as distance, power and transmission rate were considered in the analysis and the validation of the results was performed by comparing the delay obtained in the experiments with the theoretical delay obtained in equations which consider the specifications of the IEEE 802.11 physical layer.","PeriodicalId":417235,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Computational Science and Computational Intelligence (CSCI)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126544464","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}

TNPS incorporates a life cycle model of incremental and iterative software development that is an essential part of software engineering. TNPS integrates Education, Neuroscience and Technological dimensions, which facilitate the development of cognitive profile of student thinking in order to customize his/her learning activities.

Due to the genericity of the approach, cross-cutting concerns like concurrency control and auditing can be implemented widely. The approach has been implemented in form of an EHR framework.
