Assign Stress for Interrogative Sentences via Syntax Structure Mapping
Compared to the prosody study in statement-like sentence, little research has been conducted in interrogative sentence, which will definitely improve the naturalness of spoken dialog system. This paper proposes a computational model to assign stress in interrogative sentences using linguistic knowledge. We firstly investigate the interrogative sentences perceptually to label their stress locati...
متن کاملGeneralized Quantifiers in Declarative and Interrogative Sentences
In this paper we present a logical system able to compute the semantics of both declarative and interrogative sentences. Our proposed analysis takes place at both the sentential and at the discourse level. We use syntactic inference on the sentential level for declarative sentences, while the discourse level comes into play for our treatment of questions. Our formalisation uses a type logic sen...
متن کاملDenotational Semantics for interrogative Sentences in Japanese
We present a new approach to a sentence of interrogative form in Japanese within the framework of Montague Grammar. The possibility of various uses of an interrogative sentence; uses as a question, an exclamation, a rhetorical question, a demand and a recommendation is explained based on the same denotation for the sentence. The denotation which is neutral for all possible uses is defined in te...
متن کاملParallel Encoding of Focus and Interrogative Meaning in Mandarin Intonation
Despite much research, disagreements abound regarding the detailed characteristics of question intonation in different languages or even in the same language. The present study investigates question intonation in Mandarin by also considering the role of focus that is frequently ignored in previous research. In experiment 1, native speakers of Mandarin produced statements, yes/no questions, part...
متن کاملComparison of Declarative and Interrogative Intonation in Chinese
We model the differences between declarative and interrogative intonation in Chinese with Stem-ML, an intonation description language combined with an algorithm for translating tags into quantitative prosody. Our study shows that the diverse surface patterns can be accounted for by two consistent gestures: 1. Interrogative intonation has a higher phrase curve than declarative intonation; 2. Sen...
