Voice is one of the most important media of expressing emotion. We can identify many types of emotions by talking or listening to voices. This is what we know as a voice signal. Just as the way people talk is different, so is the way they express emotions. By looking or hearing a person’s way of speaking, we can easily guess his/her personality and instantaneous emotions. People’s emotion and feelings are expressed in different ways. It is through the expression of emotions and feelings that people fully express his thoughts. Happiness, sadness, and anger are the main medium of expression way of different human emotions. To express these emotions, people use body postures, facial expressions and vocalizations. Though people use a variety of means to express emotions and feelings, the easiest and most complete way to express emotion and feelings is voice signal. The subject of our study is whether we can identify the right human emotion by examining the human voice signal. By analyzing the voice signal through wavelet, we have tried to show whether the mean frequency, maximum frequency and <em>L<sub>p</sub></em> values conform to a pattern according to its different sensory types. Moreover, the technique applied here is to develop a concept using MATLAB programming, which will compare the mean frequency, maximum frequency and <em>L<sub>p</sub></em> norm to find relation and detect emotion by analyzing different voices.展开更多

The technique used compromises the effectiveness of Proportional-Integral-Derivative controller (PID). In order to satisfy the damping characteristics for the proposed power system over a wide range of operating interval, rotational speed, torque angle and terminal voltage signals of the synchronous machine are utilized as control signals of the system. It is well known that these variables have significant effects on damping the generators shaft mechanical oscillations, it'll be so easy to validate the most suitable controller as seen from the simulation results.展开更多
