  • Domínguez Bajo, Mónica; Farrús, Mireia; Wanner, Leo (International Speech Communication Association (ISCA), 2017)
    This paper presents a demonstration of a stochastic prosody tool for enrichment of synthesized speech using SSML prosody tags applied over hierarchical thematicity spans in the context of a CTS application. The motivation ...
  • Domínguez Bajo, Mónica; Farrús, Mireia; Wanner, Leo (COLING, 2016)
    Speech prosody is known to be central in advanced communication technologies. However, despite the advances of theoretical studies in speech prosody, so far, no large scale prosody annotated resources that would facilitate ...
  • Domínguez Bajo, Mónica; Farrús, Mireia; Wanner, Leo (International Speech Communication Association (ISCA), 2016)
    Intonation is traditionally considered to be the most important prosodic feature, whereupon an important research effort has been devoted to automatic segmentation and labeling of speech samples to grasp intonation cues. ...
  • Domínguez Bajo, Mónica; Burga Díaz, Alicia; Farrús, Mireia; Wanner, Leo (ELRA (European Language Resources Association), 2018)
    Theoretical studies on the Information Structure–prosody interface argue that the content packaged in terms of theme and rheme correlates with the intonation of the corresponding sentence. However, there are few empirical ...

  • Domínguez Bajo, Mónica; Farrús, Mireia; Burga Díaz, Alicia; Wanner, Leo (ISCA, 2014)
    Several grammar theories relate information structure and prosody, highlighting a major correspondence between theme and rheme, and intonation patterns. Although these theories have been successfully exploited in some ...
  • Domínguez Bajo, Mónica (Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2017-11-24)
    This dissertation presents an empirical study on the information structure– prosody interface based on: (i) a formal description of hierarchical thematicity within a systematic language model for natural language generation ...

    The correspondence between the communicative intention of a speaker in terms of Information Structure and the way this speaker reflects communicative aspects by means of prosody have been a fruitful field of study in ...
  • Domínguez Bajo, Mónica; Burga Díaz, Alicia; Farrús, Mireia; Wanner, Leo (International Speech Communication Association (ISCA), 2018)
    Theoretical studies on the information structure–prosody interface argue that the content packaged in terms of theme and rheme correlates with the intonation of the corresponding sentence as regards to rising and falling ...
  • Domínguez Bajo, Mónica; Soler Company, Juan; Wanner, Leo (International Speech Communication Association (ISCA), 2021)
    Structuring speech into informative units is certainly a desirable feature in efficient human-machine communication. This paper introduces ThemePro 2.0, a toolkit that pre-processes long monologues into smaller cohesive ...
