Abstract

The paper describes prosodic annotation procedures of the GOPOLIS Slovenian speech data database and methods for automatic classification of different prosodic events. Several statistical parameters concerning duration and loudness of words, syllables and allophones were computed for the Slovenian language, for the first time on such a large amount of speech data. The evaluation of the annotated data showed a close match between automatically determined syntactic-prosodic boundary marker positions and those obtained by a rule-based approach.
