Separability of prosodic phrase boundary and phonemic information.
It was hypothesized that the retrieval of prosodic and phonemic information from the acoustic signal is facilitated when prosodic information is encoded by co-occurring suprasegmental cues. To test the hypothesis, two-choice speeded classification experiments were conducted, which examined processing interaction between prosodic phrase-boundary vs stop-place information in speakers of Southern ...
متن کاملProsodic boundary information helps unsupervised word segmentation
It is well known that prosodic information is used by infants in early language acquisition. In particular, prosodic boundaries have been shown to help infants with sentence and wordlevel segmentation. In this study, we extend an unsupervised method for word segmentation to include information about prosodic boundaries. The boundary information used was either derived from oracle data (handanno...
متن کاملSpeech perception experiment using binaural integration of phonemic and prosodic information
1. Introduction Since Broadbent (1954) [1] first conducted a dichotic listening task by simultaneously presenting a pair of similar speech sounds at each ear, many aspects of dichotic listening have been studied, including Kimura's early interpretation from a neurological point of view [2]. In a dichotic listening task, a right-ear advantage is often observed, because language processing takes ...
متن کاملAccent type and phrase boundary estimation using acoustic and language models for automatic prosodic labeling
This paper proposes an automatic prosodic labeling technique for constructing speech database used for speech synthesis. In the corpus-based Japanese speech synthesis, it is essential to use annotated speech data with prosodic information such as phrase boundaries and accent types. However, manual annotation is generally time-consuming and expensive. To overcome this problem, we propose an esti...
متن کاملProsodic Structure, Performance Structure and Phrase Structure
It is natural to expect phrase structure to be important in predicting prosodic phrasing. Yet there appears to be a concensus that syntactic phrases do not correspond well to prosodic phrasing, and independent structures have been proposed to account for prosody. I propose that the problem with phrase structure lies with the particular measures of boundary strength applied to syntactic structur...
