Indonesian Speech Emotion Recognition using Cross-Corpus Method with the Combination of MFCC and Teager Energy Features

Emotion recognition is one of the widely studied topics in speech technology. Emotions that come from speech can contain useful information for many purposes. The main aspects in speech emotion recognition are speech features, speech corpus, and machine learning algorithms as the classifier method. In this paper, cross-corpus method is used to conduct Indonesian Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) along with the combination of Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) and Teager Energy features. Using Support Vector Machine (SVM) as classifier, the experiment result shows that applying cross-corpus method by adding corpora from other languages to the training dataset improves the emotion classification accuracy by 4.16% on MFCC Statistics feature and 2.09% on Teager-MFCC Statistics feature.
