  • Speech can actively elicit feelings and attitudes by using words. It is important for researchers to identify the emotional content contained in speech signals as well as the sort of emotion that resulted from the speech that was made. In this study, we studied the emotion recognition system using a database in Arabic, especially in the Saudi dialect, the database is from a YouTube channel called Telfaz11, The four emotions that were examined were anger, happiness, sadness, and neutral. In our experiments, we extracted features from audio signals, such as Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) and Zero-Crossing Rate (ZCR), then we classified emotions using many classification algorithms such as machine learning algorithms (Support Vector Machine (SVM) and K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN)) and deep learning algorithms such as (Convolution Neural Network (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM)). Our Experiments showed that the MFCC feature extraction method and CNN model obtained the best accuracy result with 95%, proving the effectiveness of this classification system in recognizing Arabic spoken emotions.

  • Social media is increasingly becoming a part of our daily life for communicating each other. There are various tools and applications for communication and therefore, identity theft is a common issue among users of such application. A new style of identity theft occurs when cybercriminals break into WhatsApp account, pretend as real friends and demand money or blackmail emotionally. In order to prevent from such issues, data mining can be used for text classification (TC) in analysis authorship attribution (AA) to recognize original sender of the message. Arabic is one of the most spoken languages around the world with different variants. In this research, we built a machine learning model for mining and analyzing the Arabic messages to identify the author of the messages in Saudi dialect. Many points would be addressed regarding authorship attribution mining and analysis: collect Arabic messages in the Saudi dialect, filtration of the messages' tokens. The classification would use a cross-validation technique and different machine-learning algorithms (Naïve Baye, Support Vector Machine). Results of average accuracy for Naïve Baye and Support Vector Machine have been presented and suggestions for future work have been presented.
