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.展开更多
