ExHuBERT: Enhancing HuBERT Through Block Extension and Fine-Tuning on 37 Emotion Datasets
Authors: Shahin Amiriparian, Filip Packań, Maurice Gerczuk, Björn W. Schuller
Fine-tuned and backbone extended HuBERT Large on EmoSet++, comprising 37 datasets, totaling 150,907 samples and spanning a cumulative duration of 119.5 hours. The model is expecting a 3 second long raw waveform resampled to 16 kHz. The original 6 Ouput classes are combinations of low/high arousal and negative/neutral/positive valence. Further details are available in the corresponding paper.
EmoSet++ subsets used for fine-tuning the model:
