项目摘要

During the period from April 1, 2002 to March 31, 2005, various experiments were done on the topic of the acoustic, articulatory and perceptual characteristics of vocal expression of emotion in Japanese and American English, the results have been published as journal or proceeding publications (see attached bibliography).The main results are the following :(1) Examination of articulatory and acoustic spontaneous speech American English and Japanese speech data (recordings made at NTT Laboratories, Atsugi) indicate that sad and imitated sad utterances (a) are different from read utterances, (b) have similar acoustic characteristics (high F0, changed F1 as well as changed voice quality), (c) but are different in terms of articulation (e.g., lip, jaw and tongue). In addition, speech rated highly by listeners as sad is associated with high F0 and changed voice quality.(2) Analysis of articulatory and acoustic characteristics of expressive utterances of a given sentence in different speaking styles suggested that both rhythmic patterns and voice pitch contours vary, and that the stress pattern (represented by syllable and boundary magnitudes) often works independently from intonation, e.g., for suspicion, the prominent syllable (/won/) actually has the lowest F0 value.(3) Perception studies with Japanese and American listeners of Japanese paralinguistic information indicated that native listeners could identify types of paralinguistic information correctly in 3-dimensional perceptual space, but non-native listeners showed a different pattern, depending on their degree of proficiency in the language ; moreover, regression analysis showed high correlation between the acoustic measures and perceptual space.

2002年4月1日至2005年3月31日期间，本研究对日语和美语情感表达的声学、发音和感知特征进行了多项实验，实验结果已发表在期刊或学报上主要成果如下：（1）发音和声学自发语音的检查美国英语和日语语音数据（在NTT实验室，厚木制作的录音）表明，悲伤和模仿悲伤的话语（a）不同于阅读话语，（B）具有相似的声学特性（高F0，改变的F1以及改变的语音质量），（c）但是在清晰度方面不同（例如，唇、颌和舌）。此外，被听众高度评价为悲伤的语音与高F0和改变的语音质量相关联。(2)对不同说话风格的特定句子的表达性话语的发音和声学特征的分析表明，节奏模式和音高轮廓都不同，并且重音模式（由音节和边界幅度表示）通常独立于语调，例如，值得怀疑的是，突出的音节（/won/）实际上具有最低的F0值。(3)对日本和美国听众的日本语信息的感知研究表明，母语听众可以在三维感知空间中正确识别语言信息的类型，但非母语听众表现出不同的模式，这取决于他们对语言的熟练程度;此外，回归分析表明，声学测量和感知空间之间存在高度相关性。
