How Listeners Weight Acoustic Cues to Intonational Phrase Boundaries
The presence of an intonational phrase boundary is often marked by three major acoustic cues: pause, final lengthening, and pitch reset. The present study investigates how these three acoustic cues are weighted in the perception of intonational phrase boundaries in two experiments. Sentences that contained two intonational phrases with a critical boundary between them were used as the experimen...
متن کاملIntonational Phrase Boundaries in Southern Bobo Madaré
Southern Bobo Madaré (Bobo) is a Mande language spoken in southwestern Burkina Faso. This paper presents the first step towards a systematic prosodic analysis of this language. It outlines the phonetic correlates of intonational phrase boundaries in Bobo, focusing on fundamental frequency, final lengthening, and non-modal vowel phonation. It is argued that Bobo has both L and H boundary tones, ...
متن کاملAutomatic Classi cation of Intonational Phrase Boundaries
The relationship between the intonational characteristics of an utterance and other features inferable from its text represents an important source of information both for speech recognition, to constrain the set of allowable hypotheses, and for speech synthesis, to assign intonational features appropriately from text. This work investigates the usefulness of a number of textual features and ad...
متن کاملListeners lengthen phrase boundaries in self-paced music.
Previous work has shown that musicians tend to slow down as they approach phrase boundaries (phrase-final lengthening). In the present experiments, we used a paradigm from the action perception literature, the dwell time paradigm (Hard, Recchia, & Tversky, 2011), to investigate whether participants engage in phrase boundary lengthening when self-pacing through musical sequences. When participan...
متن کاملIntonational Boundaries, Speech Repairs and Discourse Markers: Modeling Spoken Dialog
To understand a speaker's turn of a conversation, one needs to segment it into intonational phrases, clean up any speech repairs that might have occurred, and identify discourse markers. In this paper, we argue that these problems must be resolved together, and that they must be resolved early in the processing stream. We put forward a statistical language model that resolves these problems, do...
