Abstract

A formal prosody description framework is introduced together with its relation to language semantics and NLP. The framework incorporates deep prosodic structures based on a generative grammar of abstract prosodic functionally involved units. This grammar creates for each sentence a structure of immediate prosodic constituents in the form of a tree. A speech corpus manually annotated by such prosodic structures is presented and its quantitative characteristics are discussed. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
