    Sammanfattning : This study is a linguistic investigation of two genres of computer-mediated communication (CMC), namely two modes of conversational writing: ‘Internet relay chat’ (synchronous CMC) and ‘split-window ICQ chat’ (supersynchronous CMC). The study employs Douglas Biber’s multifeature multidimensional methodology, taking into account the six dimensions of textual variation in English identified in his 1988 book Variation across speech and writing (i.

    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; conversational contingency; first language acquisition; pragmatic development; Linguistics; lingvistik;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to examine children’s development as language users, with a focus on their development as conversationalists. Conversational development was measured through conversational contingency, i.e. how conversational turns are connected to each other, either in topic or time. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Towards conversational speech synthesis : Experiments with data quality, prosody modification, and non-verbal signals

    Författare :Bajibabu Bollepalli; Joakim Gustafsson; Jonas Beskow; Matthew Aylett; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Speech synthesis; MPEG compression; Voice Conversion; Artificial Neural Net- works; Laughter synthesis; HTS; Computer Science; Datalogi;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of a text-to-speech synthesis (TTS) system is to generate a human-like speech waveform from a given input text. Current TTS sys- tems have already reached a high degree of intelligibility, and they can be readily used to read aloud a given text. For many applications, e.g. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Modelling Paralinguistic Conversational Interaction : Towards social awareness in spoken human-machine dialogue

    Författare :Daniel Neiberg; Joakim Gustafson; Nigel Ward; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Parallel with the orthographic streams of words in conversation are multiple layered epiphenomena, short in duration and with a communicativepurpose. These paralinguistic events regulate the interaction flow via gaze,gestures and intonation. LÄS MER
