Abstract	:	This paper gives a comparison of two extracted features namely pitch and formants for emotion recognition from speech. The research shows that various features namely prosodic and spectral have been used for emotion recognition from speech. The database used for recognition purpose was developed on Marathi language using 100 speakers. We have extracted features pitch and formants. Angry, stress, admiration, teasing and shocking have been recognized on the basis of features energy and formants. The classification technique used here is K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN). The result for formants was about 100% which is comparatively better than that of energy which was 80% of accuracy.
