<br/>   abstract  = {This study addresses the questions how to parameterize (1) aspects of
fundamental frequency (F0) register, i.e. time-varying F0 level and range within
prosodic phrases and (2) F0 discontinuities at prosodic boundaries in order to pre-
dict perceived prosodic boundary strength in Hungarian spontaneous speech. For
F0 register stylization we propose a new fitting procedure for base-, mid-, and
toplines that does not require error-prone local peak and valley detection and is ro-
bust against disturbing influences of high pitch accents and boundary tones. From
these linear stylizations we extracted features which reflect F0 boundary disconti-
nuities and fitted stepwise linear regression and regression tree models to predict
perceived boundary strength. In a ten-fold cross-validation the mean correlation
between predictions and human judgments amounts up to 0.8.},
