This book presents a collection of papers from the Spring 1995 Work
shop on Computational Approaches to Processing the Prosody of Spon
taneous Speech, hosted by the ATR Interpreting Telecommunications
Re search Laboratories in Kyoto, Japan. The workshop brought
together lead ing researchers in the fields of speech and signal
processing, electrical en gineering, psychology, and linguistics,
to discuss aspects of spontaneous speech prosody and to suggest
approaches to its computational analysis and modelling. The book is
divided into four sections. Part I gives an overview and
theoretical background to the nature of spontaneous speech,
differentiating it from the lab-speech that has been the focus of
so many earlier analyses. Part II focuses on the prosodic features
of discourse and the structure of the spoken message, Part ilIon
the generation and modelling of prosody for computer speech
synthesis. Part IV discusses how prosodic information can be used
in the context of automatic speech recognition. Each section of the
book starts with an invited overview paper to situate the chapters
in the context of current research. We feel that this collection of
papers offers interesting insights into the scope and nature of the
problems concerned with the computational analysis and modelling of
real spontaneous speech, and expect that these works will not only
form the basis of further developments in each field but also merge
to form an integrated computational model of prosody for a better
understanding of human processing of the complex interactions of
the speech chain."
