- Abstract
- We present the results of a series of experiments in which naive listeners and expert annotators were tasked to indicate the presence of a prosodic boundary in real-time, by tapping on a computer keyboard. These taps are attributed to potential boundary syllables using an algorithm. Both groups listened to 48 samples from a corpus of French speech in multiple speaking styles, which also contains an annotation of prosodic boundaries produced off-line by experts. Several information sources (acoustic features, lexical and shallow syntactic features) are correlated with the responses of naive listeners and expert annotators. We compare the results for the two groups and describe an automated system for annotating prosodic boundaries.
