Automatic Recognition of Intonation Patterns
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper is a progress report on a project in linguistically based automatic speech recognition, The domain of this project is English intonation. The system I will describe analyzes fundamental frequency contours (F0 contours) of speech in terms of the theory of melody laid out in Pierrehumbert (1980). Experiments discussed in Liberman and Pierrehumbert (1983) support the assumptions made about intonational phonetics, and an F0 synthesis program based on a precursor to the present theory is described in Pierrehumbert (1981).

The Effectiveness of the Automatic System of Fuzzy Logic-Based Technical Patterns Recognition: Evidence from Tehran Stock Exchange
The present research proposes an automatic system based on moving average (MA) and fuzzy logic to recognize technical analysis patterns including head and shoulder patterns, triangle patterns and broadening patterns in the Tehran Stock Exchange. The automatic system was used on 38 indicators of Tehran Stock Exchange within the period 2014-2017 in order to evaluate the effectiveness of technical...
متن کاملAutomatic Face Recognition via Local Directional Patterns
Automatic facial recognition has many potential applications in different areas of humancomputer interaction. However, they are not yet fully realized due to the lack of an effectivefacial feature descriptor. In this paper, we present a new appearance based feature descriptor,the local directional pattern (LDP), to represent facial geometry and analyze its performance inrecognition. An LDP feat...
متن کاملA new model of intonation for use with speech synthesis and recognition
This paper describes a synthesis from analysis scheme for producing natural sounding intonation for speech synthesis. The paper presents a new method of describing F0 contours in terms of three basic phonetic intonation elements. Details are given of an automatic system for labelling F0 contours, which could be used for speech recognition purposes. Current work on extracting a phonological desc...
متن کاملDisambiguation of Korean utterances using automatic intonation recognition
The paper describes a research on a use of intonation for disambiguating utterance types of Korean spoken sentences. Based on tilt intonation theory [8], two related but separate experiments were performed, both using the Hidden Markov Model training technique. In the first experiment, a system is established so that rough boundary positions of major intonation events are detected. Subsequently...
متن کاملThe Role of Noticing in L2 Learners’ Production of Intonation Patterns
This study was an attempt to explore the role that the increased perceptual saliency of L2 input features or output flaws and hereby promoting L2 learners’ noticing (through planned instructional activities) can play in the learners’ use of correct English intonation patterns. The participants were 80 Iranian EFL students attending four intact classes, two low-intermediate and two upper-interme...
