We propose a novel multiple kernel learning (MKL) method using a collaborative representation constraint, called CR-MKL, for fusing the emotion information from multi-level features. To this end, the similarity and distinctiveness of multi-level features are learned in the kernels-induced space using the weighting distance measure. Our method achieves better performance than existing methods by using the voiced-level and unvoiced-level features.
