Understanding and classification of the human's emotion play an important tasks in interacting with human and machine communication systems. This paper proposes a novel emotion recognition method by extracting facial keypoints, which is able to understand and classify the human emotion, using active Appearance Model and the proposed classification model of the facial features. The existing appearance model scheme takes an expression of variations, which is calculated by the proposed classification model according to the change of human facial expression. The proposed method classifies four basic emotions (normal, happy, sad and angry). To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, we assess the ratio of success with common datasets, and we achieve the best 93% accuracy, average 82.2% in facial emotion recognition. The results show that the proposed method effectively performed well over the emotion recognition, compared to the existing schemes.

For Bengali music emotion classification, deep learning models, particularly CNN and RNN are frequently used. But previous researches had the flaws of low accuracy and overfitting problem. In this research, attention-based Conv1D and BiGRU model is designed for music emotion classification and comparative experimentation shows that the proposed model is classifying emotions more accurate. We have proposed a Conv1D and Bi-GRU with the attention-based model for emotion classification of our Bengali music dataset. The model integrates attention-based. Wav preprocessing makes use of MFCCs. To reduce the dimensionality of the feature space, contextual features were extracted from two Conv1D layers. In order to solve the overfitting problems, dropouts are utilized. Two bidirectional GRUs networks are used to update previous and future emotion representation of the output from the Conv1D layers. Two BiGRU layers are conntected to an attention mechanism to give various MFCC feature vectors more attention. Moreover, the attention mechanism has increased the accuracy of the proposed classification model. The vector is finally classified into four emotion classes: Angry, Happy, Relax, Sad; using a dense, fully connected layer with softmax activation. The proposed Conv1D+BiGRU+Attention model is efficient at classifying emotions in the Bengali music dataset than baseline methods. For our Bengali music dataset, the performance of our proposed model is 95%.

In this paper, we proposed the method of emotion recognition using staged classification model and Fisher's linear discriminant. By organizing the staged classification model, the proposed method improves the classification rate on the Fisher's feature space with high complexity. The staged classification model is achieved by the successive combining of binary classification model which has simple structure and high performance. On each stage, it forms Fisher's linear discriminant according to the two groups which contain each emotion class, and generates the binary classification model by using Adaboost method on the Fisher's space. Whole learning process is repeatedly performed until all the separations of emotion classes are finished. In experimental results, the proposed method provides about 72% classification rate on 8 classes of emotion and about 93% classification rate on specific 3 classes of emotion.

In this study, we propose a novel research framework for the recommendation system that can estimate the user's emotional state and reflect it in the recommendation process by applying deep learning techniques and emotion AI (artificial intelligence). To this end, we build an emotion classification model that classifies each of the seven emotions of angry, disgust, fear, happy, sad, surprise, and neutral, respectively, and propose a model that can reflect this result in the recommendation process. However, in the general emotion classification data, the difference in distribution ratio between each label is large, so it may be difficult to expect generalized classification results. In this study, since the number of emotion data such as disgust in emotion image data is often insufficient, correction is made through augmentation. Lastly, we propose a method to reflect the emotion prediction model based on data through image augmentation in the recommendation systems.

The purpose of this study was to develope the negative-emotion prediction model by hormonal changes during the scientific inquiry. For this study, biological classification task was developed that are suitable for comprehensive scientific inquiry. Forty-seven 2nd grade secondary school students (boy 18, girl 29) were participated in this study. The students are healthy for measure hormonal changes. The students performed the feathers classification task individually. Before and after the task, the strength of negative emotion was measured using adjective emotion check lists and they extracted their saliva sample for salivary hormone analysis. The results of this study, student's change of negative emotion during the feathers classification process was significant positive correlation(R=0.39, P<0.001) with student's salivary cortisol concentration. According to this results, we developed the negative emotion prediction model by salivary cortisol changes.

This study proposed a Long-Short Term Memory network to consider changes in emotion over time, and applied an attention mechanism to give weights to the emotion states that appear at specific moments. We used 32 channel EEG data from DEAP database. A 2-level classification (Low and High) experiment and a 3-level classification experiment (Low, Middle, and High) were performed on Valence and Arousal emotion model. As a result, accuracy of the 2-level classification experiment was 90.1% for Valence and 88.1% for Arousal. The accuracy of 3-level classification was 83.5% for Valence and 82.5% for Arousal.

This study describes the emotion classification using two different feature extraction methods for four-channel EEG signals. One of the methods is linear prediction analysis based on AR model. Another method is cross-correlation coefficients on frequencies of ${\theta}$, ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$ bands. Using the linear predictor coefficients and the cross-correlation coefficients of frequencies, the emotion classification test for four emotions, such as anger, sad, joy, and relaxation is performed with a neural network. Comparing the results of two methods, it seems that the linear predictor coefficients produce the better results than the cross-correlation coefficients of frequencies for-emotion classification.

The technology of emotion recognition is necessary for human computer interaction communication. There are many cases where one cannot communicate without considering one's emotion. As such, emotional recognition technology is an essential element in the field of communication. n this regard, it is highly utilized in various fields. Various bio-sensor sensors are used for human emotional recognition and can be used to measure emotions. This paper proposes a system for recognizing human emotions using two physiological sensors. For emotional classification, two-dimensional Russell's emotional model was used, and a method of classification based on personality was proposed by extracting sensor-specific characteristics. In addition, the emotional model was divided into four emotions using the Support Vector Machine classification algorithm. Finally, the proposed emotional recognition system was evaluated through a practical experiment.

We propose an effective emotion recognition algorithm based on the minimum classification error (MCE) incorporating multi-modal system The emotion recognition is performed based on a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) based on MCE method employing on log-likelihood. In particular, the reposed technique is based on the fusion of feature vectors based on voice signal and galvanic skin response (GSR) from the body sensor. The experimental results indicate that performance of the proposal approach based on MCE incorporating the multi-modal system outperforms the conventional approach.

This paper proposes an efficient feature vector processing technique to guard the Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) system against a variety of noises. In the proposed approach, emotional feature vectors are extracted from speech processed by comb filtering. Then, these extracts are used in a robust model construction based on feature vector classification. We modify conventional comb filtering by using speech presence probability to minimize drawbacks due to incorrect pitch estimation under background noise conditions. The modified comb filtering can correctly enhance the harmonics, which is an important factor used in SER. Feature vector classification technique categorizes feature vectors into either discriminative vectors or non-discriminative vectors based on a log-likelihood criterion. This method can successfully select the discriminative vectors while preserving correct emotional characteristics. Thus, robust emotion models can be constructed by only using such discriminative vectors. On SER experiment using an emotional speech corpus contaminated by various noises, our approach exhibited superior performance to the baseline system.
