(2014) : A system for feature classification of emotions based on speech analysis; applications to human-robot interaction: 2014 Second RSI/ISM International Conference on Robotics and Mechatronics (ICRoM): Tehran, Iran: IEEE, S. 795-800
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1109/ICRoM.2014.6991001 Abstract: A system for recognition of emotions based on speech analysis can have interesting applications in human robot interaction. Robot should make a proper mutual communication between sound recognition and perception for creating a desired emotional interaction with humans. Advanced research in this field will be based on sound analysis and recognition of emotions in spontaneous dialog. In this paper, we report the results obtained from an exploratory study on a methodology to automatically recognize and classify basic emotional states. The study attempted to investigate the appropriateness of using acoustic and phonetic properties of emotive speech with the minimal use of signal processing algorithms. The efficiency of the methodology was evaluated by experimental tests on adult European speakers. The speakers had to repeat six simple sentences in English language in order to emphasize features of the pitch (peak, value and range), the intensity of the speech, the formants and the speech rate. The proposed methodology using the freeware program (PRAAT) and consists of generating and analyzing a graph of pitch, formant and intensity of speech signals for classify basic emotion. Eventually, the proposed model provided successful recognition of the basic emotion in most of the cases.

Abstract: Irish English, while having been the focus of investigations on a variety of linguistic levels, reveals a dearth of research on the pragmatic level. In the present volume, this imbalance is addressed by providing much-needed empirical data on language use in Ireland in the private, official and public spheres and also by examining the use of Irish English as a reflection of socio-cultural norms of interaction. The contributions cover a wide range of pragmatic phenomena and draw on a number of frameworks of analysis. Despite the wide scope of topics and methodologies, a relatively coherent picture of conventions of language use in Ireland emerges. Indirectness and heterogeneity on the formal level are, for instance, shown to be features of Irish English. This volume is the first book-length treatment of the pragmatics of a national variety of English, or any other language. Indeed, it could be considered a first step towards a new discipline, variational pragmatics, at the interface of pragmatics and dialectology. This book is of primary interest to researchers and students in pragmatics, variational linguistics, Irish English, English as Foreign Language (EFL), cross-cultural communication and discourse analysis. Furthermore, the pragmatic descriptions provided will be of practical use in the increasingly important English as Second Language (ESL) context in Ireland. Finally, it is also of relevance to professionals dealing with Ireland and, indeed, to anyone interested in a deeper understanding of Irish culture.

Tolmach Lakoff, Robin; Bucholtz, Mary (Hg.) (2004): Language and woman's place. Text and commentaries. Rev. and expanded ed.. New York: Oxford University Press. Online verfügbar unter http://site.ebrary.com/lib/academiccompletetitles/home.action
Abstract: The 1975 publication of Robin Tolmach Lakoff's Language and Woman's Place, is widely recognized as having inaugurated feminist research on the relationship between language and gender, touching off a remarkable response among language scholars, feminists, and general readers. For the past thirty years, scholars of language and gender have been debating and developing Lakoff's initial observations. Arguing that language is fundamental to gender inequality, Lakoff pointed to two areas in which inequalities can be found: Language used about women, such as the asymmetries between seemingly parallel terms like master and mistress, and language used by women, which places women in a double bind between being appropriately feminine and being fully human. Lakoff's central argument that "women's language" expresses powerlessness triggered a controversy that continues to this day. The revised and expanded edition presents the full text of the original first edition, along with an introduction and annotations by Lakoff in which she reflects on the text a quarter century later and expands on some of the most widely discussed issues it raises. The volume also brings together commentaries from twenty-six leading scholars of language, gender, and sexuality, within linguistics, anthropology, modern languages, education, information sciences, and other disciplines. The commentaries discuss the book's contribution to feminist research on language and explore its ongoing relevance for scholarship in the field. This new edition of Language and Woman's Place not only makes available once again the pioneering text of feminist linguistics; just as important, it places the text in the context of contemporary feminist and gender theory for a new generation of readers.
