Abstract

Speech emotion recognition is a challenge and an important step towards more natural human-computer interaction (HCI). The popular approach is multimodal emotion recognition based on model-level fusion, which means that the multimodal signals can be encoded to acquire embeddings, and then the embeddings are concatenated together for the final classification. However, due to the influence of noise or other factors, each modality does not always tend to the same emotional category, which affects the generalization of a model. In this paper, we propose a novel regularization method via contrastive learning for multimodal emotion recognition using audio and text. By introducing a discriminator to distinguish the difference between the same and different emotional pairs, we explicitly restrict the latent code of each modality to contain the same emotional information, so as to reduce the noise interference and get more discriminative representation. Experiments are performed on the standard IEMOCAP dataset for 4-class emotion recognition. The results show a significant improvement of 1.44\% and 1.53\% in terms of weighted accuracy (WA) and unweighted accuracy (UA) compared to the baseline system.
