The CoPaSul intonation model

Authors: Uwe D. Reichel

Abstract:

A new data-driven and linguistically interpretable intonation model for the automatic analysis and synthesis of fundamental frequency contours is introduced: the CoPaSul model, which provides a contour-based (Co), parametric (Pa), and superpositional (Sul) intonation representation. Its application in F0 analysis and generation is described as well as its linguistic anchoring with respect to semantic weight and utterance finality.
