Abstract:

Computer methods for extracting physical parameters, comparing the relative efficiency of the parameters as an intonational signal, processing the extracted data, and extracting and identifying pitch patterns, are described. Fundamental pattern features and cardinal pitch patterns are defined and proposed as constituents of intonation patterns. Modified author abstract
