Modeling the intonation of topic structure: two approaches
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intonational variation is widely regarded as a source of information about the topic structure of spoken discourse. However, many factors other than topic can influence this variation. We compared two models of intonation in terms of their ability to account for these other sources of variation. In dealing with this variation, the models paint different pictures of the intonational correlates of topic.

A review of text mining approaches and their function in discovering and extracting a topic
Background and aim: Four text mining methods are examined and focused on understanding and identifying their properties and limitations in subject discovery. Methodology: The study is an analytical review of the literature of text mining and topic modeling. Findings: LSA could be used to classify specific and unique topics in documents that address only a single topic. The other three text min...
متن کاملComparing two different principles of parametric F0 modeling
A number of data-based approaches to intonation modeling represent F0 movements using continuous parameters. This is contradictory to most intonation theories, which suggest that intonation can be modeled with a set of distinct phonological entities that are phonetically realized as F0 movements. This principle has rarely been incorporated into data-based intonation modeling. In this study we c...
متن کاملQuantitative Structure-Pproperty Relationship Modeling of the Redox Potential for Some Phenolic Antioxidants
In this work, quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) approaches were used to predict the redox potential of 42 phenolic antioxidants. The structures of all compounds optimized by the AM1 semi-empirical method and then a large number of molecular descriptors were calculated for each compound in the data set. Subsequently, stepwise multilinear regression was applied to select the mos...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of the Views of Kristjansson, Battaly and Martyr Motahhari on the Effect of Theoretical Wisdom and Modeling on Moral Character
“Moral character” is a subject related to the psyche and an important topic in moral psychology. The question is whether the formation of moral character is inherent and unchangeable. If it is acquired, what factors affect it? If a character becomes vicious, is it possible to correct it? Considering the importance of the aforementioned questions, it was necessary to study the issue of “shaping ...
متن کاملSynthesising intonational varieties of Swedish
Within the research project SIMULEKT (Simulating Intonational Varieties of Swedish), our recent work includes two approaches to simulating intonation in regional varieties of Swedish. The first involves a method for modeling intonation using the SWING (SWedish INtonation Generator) tool, where annotated speech samples are resynthesised with rule-based intonation and audio-visually analysed with...
