Description
Speech emotion recognition has been developed rapidly in recent decades because of the appearance of machine learning. Nevertheless, lack of corpus remains a significant issue. For actual speech emotion corpus construction, many professional actors are required to perform voices with various emotions in specific scenes. In the process of data labelling, since the number of samples of different emotion categories is extremely imbalanced, it is difficult to efficiently label the samples. Hence, we proposed an integrated active learning sampling strategy and designed an efficient framework for constructing speech emotion corpora in order to address the problems presented above. Comparing experiments with other active learning algorithms on 13 datasets, our method was shown to improve sampling efficiency. In addition, it is able to select small category samples to be labelled with preference in imbalanced datasets. During the actual corpus construction experiments, our method can prioritize selecting small class emotion samples. As even when the amount of labelled data is less than 50%, the accuracy rate still can reach 90%. This greatly enhances the efficiency of constructing the speech emotion corpus and fills in the gaps.
