The Use of Prosody in Syntactic Disambiguation
In: DTIC (1991)
Abstract: Prosodic structure and syntactic structure are not identical; neither are they unrelated. Knowing when and how the two correspond could yield better quality speech synthesis, could aid in the disambiguation of competing syntactic hypotheses in speech understanding, and could lead to a more comprehensive view of human speech processing. In a set of experiments involving 35 pairs of phonetically similar sentences representing seven types of structural contrasts, the perceptual evidence shows that some, but not all, of the pairs can be disambiguated on the basis of prosodic differences. The phonological evidence relates the disambiguation primarily to boundary phenomena, although prominences sometimes play a role. Finally, phonetic analyses describing the attributes of these phonological markers indicate the importance of both absolute and relative measures. ; Prepared in cooperation with Boston University, Boston, MA and the Massachusetts Instititute of Technology, Cambridge, MA. Presented at the Human Language Technology Conference held in Pacific Grove, CA on 19-22 Feb 1991 and published in proceedings of the Speech and Natural Language Workshop, p372-377.
