Boiling down prosody for the classification of boundaries and accents in German and English
In the focus of this paper is a comparison of the most relevant prosodic features/feature classes for the classification of boundaries and accents in German and in English. Principal components were computed based on a large prosodic feature vector; these principal components were used as predictor variables in a Linear Discriminant analysis as well as in a Classification and Regression Tree. T...
متن کاملAnalysis of emotion in speech using perceived and automatically extracted prosodic features
This study investigates the relationship between emotional states and prosody. A prosody detection algorithm was applied to emotional speech to extract accents and intonational boundaries automatically and these were compared with hand-labeled prosodic units. The measurements used in the detection algorithm are derived from duration, pitch, harmonic structure, spectral tilt, and amplitude. The ...
متن کاملNegative Selection Based Data Classification with Flexible Boundaries
One of the most important artificial immune algorithms is negative selection algorithm, which is an anomaly detection and pattern recognition technique; however, recent research has shown the successful application of this algorithm in data classification. Most of the negative selection methods consider deterministic boundaries to distinguish between self and non-self-spaces. In this paper, two...
متن کاملExperiments on automatic prosodic labeling
This paper presents results from experiments on automatic prosodic labeling. Using the WEKA machine learning software [1], classifiers were trained to determine for each syllable in a speech database of a male speaker its pitch accent and its boundary tone. Pitch accents and boundaries are according to the GToBI(S) dialect, with slight modifications. Classification was based on 35 attributes in...
متن کاملIncremental Prosody Modelling for Interaction Management in Spoken Dialogue Systems
Prosody, as manifested in accents and phrasal boundaries, is a recognized and important aspect of human language understanding. Accents are supported by syllables, whereas phrasal boundaries occur between words. The influence of both accents and boundaries on the other hand, extends to surrounding syllables and, in the case of boundaries, preceding words (even as far back as the last accent in ...
