It is well known that the performance of emotional talking condition recognition is imperfect. This work aims at enhancing the performance of emotional talking condition recognition based on "Third-Order Hidden Markov Models (HMM3s)" as classifiers. Our work has been tested on "Emotional Prosody Speech and Transcripts (EPST)" database. The extracted features of EPST database are Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs). Our results give average talking recognition performance of 71.8%. The results of this work show that HMM3s are superior to First-Order Hidden Markov Models (HMM1s) and Second-Order Hidden Markov Models (HMM2s) by 14.0% and 5.7%, respectively, for emotional talking condition recognition. The average talking recognition performance attained based on HMM3s is very close to that obtained using "subjective assessment by human judges".
