Publisher Description:
This volume contains the revised texts of lectures and papers given at the Nordic Prosody VII conference, held at the University of Joensuu, Finland, in August 1996. The contributions by Scandinavian and other researchers cover a wide range of prosody-related topics from various theoretical angles. Their approaches are not limited to phonetic and phonological analyses but provide also new insights from speech technology. Research issues addressed include, among others, mapping procedures from acoustic to prosodic structures, the relationship between lexical and sentence stress, timing perception, phrasing, intonation modelling and prosodic processing.
