Transferable Positive/Negative Speech Emotion Recognition via Class-wise Adversarial Domain Adaptation
share
Speech emotion recognition plays an important role in building more intelligent and human-like agents. Due to the difficulty of collecting speech emotional data, an increasingly popular solution is leveraging a related and rich source corpus to help address the target corpus. However, domain shift between the corpora poses a serious challenge, making domain shift adaptation difficult to function even on the recognition of positive/negative emotions. In this work, we propose class-wise adversarial domain adaptation to address this challenge by reducing the shift for all classes between different corpora. Experiments on the well-known corpora EMODB and Aibo demonstrate that our method is effective even when only a very limited number of target labeled examples are provided.
