Proceedings of the workshop on Speech and Natural Language - HLT '89, 1989 We address the role of prosody as a potential information source for the assignment of syntactic structure. We consider the perceptual role of prosody in marking syntactic breaks of various kinds for human listeners, the automatic extraction of prosodic information, and its correlation with perceptual data.

Robust and Fine-grained Prosody Control of End-to-end Speech Synthesis [PDF]
IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 2018 We propose prosody embeddings for emotional and expressive speech synthesis networks. The proposed methods introduce temporal structures in the embedding networks, thus enabling fine-grained control of the speaking style of the synthesized speech.

Oxytocin does not improve emotional prosody recognition in schizophrenia-spectrum disorders
Comprehensive Psychoneuroendocrinology, 2020 Schizophrenia-spectrum disorders (SSD) are associated with deficits in emotional prosody recognition. Whether administration of oxytocin can improve emotional prosody recognition accuracy in SSD is unknown.

Fine-grained robust prosody transfer for single-speaker neural text-to-speech [PDF]
Interspeech, 2019 We present a neural text-to-speech system for fine-grained prosody transfer from one speaker to another. Conventional approaches for end-to-end prosody transfer typically use either fixed-dimensional or variable-length prosody embedding via a secondary ...

The Phonetics and Phonology of Korean Prosody
, 2018 A linguistic dissertation presenting experiment results focused on Korean speech rhythms and how they differ from those in English. The volume describes differences in the role of intonationally defined prosodic grouping influencing the pronunciation of ...

Brain Networks of Emotional Prosody Processing
, 2020 The processing of emotional nonlinguistic information in speech is defined as emotional prosody. This auditory nonlinguistic information is essential in the decoding of social interactions and in our capacity to adapt and react adequately by taking into ...

Is reading prosody related to reading comprehension? A meta-analysis
Scientific Studies of Reading, 2020 We examined the relation between reading prosody and reading comprehension, using a systematic review and meta-analysis to estimate the strength of the relation and to understand whether the strength of the relation varies by prosody feature (adult-like ...

, 2000 We describe the acoustic-prosodic and syntactic-prosodic annotation and classification of boundaries, accents and sentence mood integrated in the Verbmobil system for the three languages German, English, and Japanese. For the acoustic-prosodic classification, a large feature vector with normalized prosodic features is used.

Social power and recognition of emotional prosody : High power is associated with lower recognition accuracy than low power [PDF]
, 2016 Listeners have to pay close attention to a speaker’s tone of voice (prosody) during daily conversations. This is particularly important when trying to infer the emotional state of the speaker.

The primacy of categories in the recognition of 12 emotions in speech prosody across two cultures
Nature Human Behaviour, 2019 Central to emotion science is the degree to which categories, such as Awe, or broader affective features, such as Valence, underlie the recognition of emotional expression.
