چکیده
The brain regions subserving the processing of emotional prosody have been investigated using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG) but few studies investigated direct electrical neuronal activity using intracranial recordings in humans. Previous studies have shown the involvement of the amygdala and the orbito-frontal cortex (OFC) in the processing of emotional prosody. In this paper we present first evidence of functional neuronal coupling between these two regions in response to different kinds of emotional prosody

Automatic Analysis of the Prosodic Variations in Parkinsonian Read and Semi-spontaneous Speech
This work presents an automatic analysis of Parkinsonian speech prosody in read and spontaneous tasks. We first evaluate the reliability of existing algorithms for the automatic analysis of speech prosody and show that these tools are efficient for the analysis of Parkinsonian speech if a large amount of data is processed. We then investigate the prosodic characteristics of 25 control and 30 Pa...
متن کاملAn Acoustic Study of Emotivity-Prosody Interface in Persian Speech Using the Tilt Model
This paper aims to explore some acoustic properties (i.e. duration and pitch amplitude of speech) associated with three different emotions: anger, sadness and joy against neutrality as a reference point, all being intentionally expressed by six Persian speakers. The primary purpose of this study is to find out if there is any correspondence between the given emotions and prosody patterning in P...
متن کاملAUTOMATED EXTRACTION OF ToBI ANNOTATION DATA FROM THE READING/LEEDS EMOTIONAL SPEECH CORPUS
In the interest of achieving experimental control, most studies of the effects of emotional arousal on the voice have avoided field data, preferring instead to work with data simulated by actors, or, more rarely due to the ethical and practical difficulties involved, induced in the laboratory. These methods allow for control over unwanted variables such as recording conditions, verbal content, ...
متن کاملStudy on Unit-Selection and Statistical Parametric Speech Synthesis Techniques
One of the interesting topics on multimedia domain is concerned with empowering computer in order to speech production. Speech synthesis is granting human abilities to the computer for speech production. Data-based approach and process-based approach are the two main approaches on speech synthesis. Each approach has its varied challenges. Unit-selection speech synthesis and statistical parametr...
متن کاملThe Affective and Pragmatic Coding of Prosody
Prosody or intonation is a prime carrier of affective information, a function that has often been neglected in speech research. Most work on prosody has been informed by linguistic models of sentence intonation that focus on accent structure and which are based on widely differing theoretical assumptions. Human speech production includes both prosodic coding of emotions, such as anger or happin...
