The research has achieved the following results concerning prosody in Japanese and English utterances representing information on prominence (i.e., new information or focus).First, we picked out relevant expressions from text data and edited a linguistic corpus which is available on computers. Second, we investigated a linguistic model integrating lexical, phonological, syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic information determining prosody on the basis of Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG) and the underspecified approach advocated by Pierrehumbert and Beckman. Furthermore, based on the above model, we proposed specific processes and grammatical stipulations to generate focus in utterances. More specifically, we have shown that we can specify general and concise information in each component, i.e. lexicon, syntax, phonology and pragmatics, and can define minimal interfaces between them. We have also made clear that HPSG and the underspecified approach are suitable frameworks for constructing such an architecture.We believe that this study is of importance because of its interdisciplinary and integrated approach taken in the field where only limited sets of issues have hitherto been addressed.

这项研究在日语和英语话语中代表突出信息（即新信息或焦点）的韵律方面取得了以下成果。首先，我们从文本数据中挑选出相关表达，并编辑了可在计算机上使用的语言语料库。其次，我们在头驱动短语结构语法（HPSG）和 Pierrehumbert 和 Beckman 倡导的未指定方法的基础上，研究了一种集成词汇、语音、句法、语义和语用信息确定韵律的语言模型。此外，基于上述模型，我们提出了产生话语焦点的具体过程和语法规定。更具体地说，我们已经证明，我们可以在每个组件中指定通用且简洁的信息，即词典、语法、音系和语用学，并且可以定义它们之间的最小接口。我们还明确指出，HPSG 和未指定的方法是构建这种架构的合适框架。我们认为这项研究很重要，因为它在迄今为止只解决了有限问题的领域中采用了跨学科和综合的方法。
