What is MFCC used for in speech recognition?

MFCC are popular features extracted from speech signals for use in recognition tasks. In the source-filter model of speech, MFCC are understood to represent the filter (vocal tract). The frequency response of the vocal tract is relatively smooth, whereas the source of voiced speech can be modeled as an impulse train.

What is MFCC in speech emotion recognition?

Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) technique is used to recognize emotion of a speaker from their voice. The designed system was validated for Happy, sad and anger emotions and the efficiency was found to be about 80%.

Why is MFCC used in audio classification?

It is observed that extracting features from the audio signal and using it as input to the base model will produce much better performance than directly considering raw audio signal as input. MFCC is the widely used technique for extracting the features from the audio signal.

Is mel spectrogram same as MFCC?

Mel-Spectrogram is computed by applying a Fourier transform to analyze the frequency content of a signal and to convert it to the mel-scale, while MFCCs are calculated with a discrete cosine transform (DCT) into a melfrequency spectrogram.
