Computer simulation of spontaneous speech
(1984) 10th International Conference on Computational Linguistics and 22nd Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics In Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics 22. p.79-83- Abstract (Swedish)
- This paper pinpoints some of the problems faced when a computer text production model (COMMENTATOR) is to produce spontaneous speech, in particular the problem of chunking the utterances in order to get natural prosodic units. The paper proposes a buffer model which allows the accumulation and delay of phonetic material until a chunk of the desired size has been built up. Several phonetic studies have suggested a similar temporary storage in order to explain intonation slopes, rythmical patterns, speech errors and speech disorders. Small-scale simulations of the whole verbalization process from perception and thought to sounds, hesitation behaviour, pausing, speech errors, sound changes and speech disorders are presented.
