Intonation and Computation

This course will introduce students to computational approaches to the study of intonation in a variety of corpus studies.  We will examine the role of intonational variation in phenomena such as sentiment and emotion, deception, and entrainment and methods used to identify these by computational linguists and speech scientists.  A draft of the syllabus is here:
