| Abstract: | A method is introduced for using hidden Markov models
(HMMs) to model intonational structure. HMMs are
probabilistic and can capture the variability in structure
which previous finite state network models lack. We
show how intonational tunes can be modelled by separate
HMMs and how HMMs can be used in a recognition
system to automatically determine the tune type of an utterance. |
