Mapping Syntax and Prosody
The relationship between prosodic structure and syntactic structure has remained a controversial and unresolved area, partly due to the lack of rich corpora of natural speech, and partly due to the complexity involved in both syntax and prosody. Chom-sky & Halle (1968, p. 372) state that " although there is a substantial literature on intonational and prosodic features in English, it is largely...
متن کاملProsody, Syntax and Parsing
We describe the modification of a grammar to take advantage of prosodic information provided by a speech recognition system. This initial study is limited to the use of relative duration of phonetic segments in the assignment of syntactic structure, specifically in ruling out alternative parses in otherwise ambiguous sentences. Taking advantage of prosodic information in parsing can make a spok...
متن کامل"Prosody and Syntax"
[1] Introduction: We would like to argue in this paper, first, that in order to make syntactic tests for scope interpretation of wh-questions in Japanese repeatable, we must take prosody into consideration. Second, we propose that focused wh-phrases come to be associated with some formal feature showing up in a higher functional projection at LF, which is distinct from any version of wh-movemen...
متن کاملAssigning Prosodic Structure for Speech Synthesis via Syntax-Prosody Mapping
This thesis presents a model that assigns prosodic structure to unrestricted text. The model is linguistically motivated. For the implementation an XML-pipeline is used as a data-architecture. The output can be processed by a text-to-speech synthesiser for determining the locations of phrase breaks. The model’s performance is evaluated in various ways. It outperforms another rule-based approach...
