In order to accurately identify speech emotion information, the discriminant-cascading effect in dimensionality reduction of speech emotion recognition is investigated. Based on the existing locality preserving projections and graph embedding framework, a novel discriminant-cascading dimensionality reduction method is proposed, which is named discriminant-cascading locality preserving projections （DCLPP）. The proposed method specifically utilizes supervised embedding graphs and it keeps the original space for the inner products of samples to maintain enough information for speech emotion recognition. Then, the kernel DCLPP （KDCLPP） is also proposed to extend the mapping form. Validated by the experiments on the corpus of EMO-DB and eNTERFACE＇05, the proposed method can clearly outperform the existing common dimensionality reduction methods, such as principal component analysis （PCA）, linear discriminant analysis （LDA）, locality preserving projections （LPP）, local discriminant embedding （LDE）, graph-based Fisher analysis （GbFA） and so on, with different categories of classifiers.

In order to effectively conduct emotion recognition from spontaneous, non-prototypical and unsegmented speech so as to create a more natural human-machine interaction; a novel speech emotion recognition algorithm based on the combination of the emotional data field （EDF） and the ant colony search （ACS） strategy, called the EDF-ACS algorithm, is proposed. More specifically, the inter- relationship among the turn-based acoustic feature vectors of different labels are established by using the potential function in the EDF. To perform the spontaneous speech emotion recognition, the artificial colony is used to mimic the turn- based acoustic feature vectors. Then, the canonical ACS strategy is used to investigate the movement direction of each artificial ant in the EDF, which is regarded as the emotional label of the corresponding turn-based acoustic feature vector. The proposed EDF-ACS algorithm is evaluated on the continueous audio）＇visual emotion challenge （AVEC） 2012 dataset, which contains the spontaneous, non-prototypical and unsegmented speech emotion data. The experimental results show that the proposed EDF-ACS algorithm outperforms the existing state-of-the-art algorithm in turn-based speech emotion recognition.
