| Research Abstract |
The use of suprasegmental features were investigated in speech dialoge system. The suprasegmental features are the parameters which are concerned with long periods of speech, for examples, the prosodic information, the context information, the associative information between words, the discourse segmental information.
The concrete studies are as follows,
1. We developed a method which could extract accurate fundamental frequency by the repeat of speech wave differentiation and integration.
2. We developed a method which could extract phrase boundaries in continuous speech by using prosodic information.
3. We developed a method which could judge the modifing relation between succesively spoken phrases by using prosodic information.
4. We developed a method which could express the associative information between words.
5. We developed a method which could predict following words by using associative information between words.
6. We developed a discourse segmentation method by automatic keywords extraction.
7. We developed some speech dialogue system in which we could use pronouns by using context information.
8. We developed a method which could synthesize several emotive speech by using prosodic information.
9. We developed three kinds of speech dialogue system and evaluated them. The results confirmed us that the suprasegmental features were useful to upgrade the performance of man-machine speech dialogue system.
