1. F0 plays an important role in conveying linguistic, paralinguistic, and non-linguistic information
2. Deriving a fullu quantitative represnetation of continuous F0 contours of speech is difficult
(1) Numbers of parameters
(2) Relationship between local accent/tone and global phrase intonation
(3) Mathematical representation
3.
(1)Model/rule-based approaches
(2)Data-driven approaches
(a)Explicit representation of only local components
(b) Both global and local components
4. Examples of those approaches
(1) early work by Pierre Humbert(1980)
(2) Intonation module for Mandarin in the Bell Labs TTS systems
(3) PENTA
(4) IPO model
(5) Soft Template Mark-UP Languages
(6) CART
(7) HMM
(8) Quantitative Models
