Bachelor thesis on the impact of cepstral features for emotion recognition

In the thesis „Philipp Kramer: Relevanz cepstraler Merkmale für Vorhersagen im Arousal-Valence Modell auf Musiksignaldaten“ (Relevance of cepstral features for predictions in arousal-valence model for music signals, PDF in German), several groups of features were analysed for the regression-based prediction of arousal and valence: cepstral, energy, timbral, harmonic/melodic, and temporal/rhythmic. Some parameters for the feature extraction were optimised, and it was shown that features from the cepstral domain belonged to the best models.
