Emotion Analysis Using Improved Cat Swarm Optimization with Machine Learning for Speech-impaired People

Abstract

Emotion analysis is an effective method for improving interaction and understanding for speech-impaired people. We can provide the best interaction and support emotional well-being by analyzing the emotion conveyed through speech. Using deep learning (DL) or machine learning algorithms for training an emotion classification method. This might include training classifiers namely random forests, deep neural networks, or support vector machines. It is noteworthy that emotion analysis could be effective; however, it is crucial to consider individual differences and context while interpreting emotion. Furthermore, ensuring data protection and privacy and obtaining consent are vital features to consider while working with sensitive speech data. Therefore, this study presents an emotion analysis approach using improved cat swarm optimization with machine learning (EA-ICSOML) technique. The EA-ICSOML technique applies the concepts of computer vision and DL to identify various types of emotions. For feature vector generation, the ShuffleNet model is used in this work. To adjust the hyperparameters compared to the ShuffleNet system, the ICSO algorithm is used. Finally, the recognition and classification of emotions are performed using the Transient Chaotic Neural Network approach. The performance validation of the EA-ICSOML technique is validated on facial emotion databases. The simulation result inferred the improved emotion recognition results of the EA-ICSOML approach compared to other recent models in terms of different evaluation measures.
