    Abstract: The definition of lexical base forms may greatly affect the structure of the phonological component of a system of speech synthesis from semantic representations. This paper presents a model of mora-generating/preserving phonology for Japanese constructed from an observation of the syntactic/morphophonological derivations of predicate phrases. The achievements of the model are the following. (1) The output of the mora-independent lexico-syntax of the predicate phrase is taken care of by the three-tier rule system of word formation, phonology, and phonetics. (2) The reduction of the number of rules and the simplification of their forms are attained by transferring to syntax processes previously regarded as phonological. (3) The mora preservation phenomena are exclusively handled by the seven cyclic phonological rules. (4) Along with the rule editor system, this phonological component is fully implemented in the computer as a subsystem attached to the speech synthesis system from the semantic base [S. Sato and H. Kasuya, European Conference of Speech Technology, Vol. 2, 414–417 (1987)] .

    Abstract: Measurement of F0 was made of utterances of Japanese sentences to observe behavior of intonation contours with varied focus assignment and lexical accent specifications. Materials were 80 sentences of right-branching structures of the type NP1-NP2(-NP3)-VP, where 16 have two three-mora NP’s and 64 three NP’s, including all the permutations of NP’s, each with one of the four lexical accent types. The utterances were generated in question–answer discourse contexts so that in a sentence, one NP was always focused. The results are: (1) focus assignment has no significant effect on NP1, (2) NP2 and NP3 are significantly higher when focused than when not focused, and (3) focused/unfocused NP2 preceded by unaccented NP1 is significantly higher than those preceded by accented NP1, and so is NP3 preceded by NP2 with the same conditions. These suggest that focus assignment on NP2/NP3 requires rephrasing there, that a lexical accent of an NP narrows the pitch range of the following phrase, and that the prosodic status of focus assignment is lower than that of the lexical accent.

    Abstract: In order to look for acoustic–phonetic reflections of focus in discourse, speech of Korean and Japanese was analyzed, followed by a perception experiment ensuring that, to locate the focus, a sufficient range of F0 change must exist in the focused phrase. The following findings are drawn from phonetic observations and the perception experiment. (1) In both Korean and Japanese the focus is realized by the difference in F0 in the syllables in the focused phrase rather than by its local maximum. Without a lexically preassigned pitch accent, the focus in Korean emphasizes the difference in the rise in pitch in the first two syllables of the phrase in focus. Japanese, on the contrary, makes use of the inherent accentual pattern of the phrase, resulting in comparatively higher F0 of the accented syllable. (2) The differences in intensity between focused and unfocused phrases are not significant, whereas the overall significance of the differences in pitch change is maintained both in Korean and Japanese; there is a tendency in Korean toward larger variational ranges than in Japanese. (3) Duration is longer for the focused phrase than for the unfocused; Korean shows more prominent lengthening of the focused phrase than Japanese. (4) According to the perception experiment, duration and intensity are not utilized to locate the focus in discourse; in spite of longer duration and stronger intensity, focus is not perceived without a sufficient change of F0.

    Abstract: In order to confirm validity of the phonological rules of Japanese and their application algorithms, a phonetic form generation experiment is performed in the phonological component of a semantics-to-speech system implemented in the computer. The rules are tiered according, first, to the nature of data they handle: segmental versus accentual, and, second, to their rule-applicational relevance to syntax: cyclic versus noncyclic. Successful integration of segmental and accentual phases of phonological processing is shown to be possible using the concept of recursive adjunction of a suffix to a stem. The rules were installed in the computer in a human-editable format, translated by a rule compiler into executable Lisp functions, tested, and found to be valid in actual realization of synthesized speech.

    Abstract: Acoustic measurement was made of utterances of syntactically ambiguous sentences in Tokyo and Sendai Japanese, Seoul and Kyongsang Korean, Mongolian, and Turkish to observe prosodic strategies for disambiguation. Materials were sentences of the types ADV-VP1-NP-VP2 and ADJ-NP1-NP2-VP, where the former is ambiguous in terms of adverbial modification, ADV modifying either VP1 or VP2, and the latter creates ambiguity for the adjective ADJ modifying either NP1 or NP1+NP2. For these constructions, the four languages show identical constituent structures, and accordingly create same ambiguities. After defining the syntactic depth of a boundary, F0 of the phrase before and after the boundary, and duration of the syllable and pause before the boundary were measured. The results for differentiating the syntactic depth: (1) Tokyo Japanese and Kyongsang Korean make use of F0 rise after the boundary, (2) Seoul Korean lengthens the duration, (3) Turkish uses F0 rise before the boundary followed by a pause, and (4) pause is the indication for Sendai Japanese and Mongolian.

    Abstract: With a subsystem designed to extract meaning from written Esperanto being added to the speech synthesis system of Japanese generated in the semantic/syntactic base [S. Sato and H. Kasuya, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. Suppl. 1 73, S5 (1983)], we present an overview of this translation-synthesis system including a knowledge base editor for implementing linguistic information needed. Allowing a wide range of data modification and file manipulation operations, the frame editor can edit on a frame/slot basis the rules and dictionaries used in parsing Esperanto and generating Japanese. The main portion of the knowledge base is occupied with descriptions about case structures, selectional restrictions, hierarchial relations among items, etc. for detecting anomaly and ambiguity of a given Esperanto sentence. The semantics gives to the meaning a case frame expression, from which the sentence generator produces a surface form with some trimming with phonological and accentuation rules. The synthesis program further converts the surface into acoustic parameters, rendering a time series of control parameters for the terminal analog synthesizer.

    Abstract: This report is the first attempt in Japanese speech synthesis generated in the syntactic base. While the authors have acoustic-phonetically analyzed an amount of speech data, they also have brough forth theoretical refinement to the rule system of Japanese phonology and syntax [J. D. McCawlay, The Phonological Compoment of a Grammar of Japanese (Mouton, The Hague, 1968); H. Yoshiba Ling. Analysis 7, 241–262 (1981)]. Both seek a generative model for the speech data and for verifying the theory that a speech synthesis-by-rule system is now in progress comprising phonological rules as well as other higher-level generations. It is shown that purely phonological interpretation of some of the forms yields ad hoc rules and complicates the system, and hence that by restructuring the syntactic/phonological organization remarkable simplification in the phonological rules can be attained. It is expected that this significant modification in the theory can bring constructive generalization and rearrangement to the synthesis-by-rule system of Japanese.
