Three ToBI-based measures of prosodic entrainment and their correlations with speaker engagement
Entrainment is the propensity of conversational partners to align different aspects of their communicative behavior. In this study we present three novel measures of prosodic entrainment based on intonational contours as defined by the ToBI conventions for prosodic description. Each of these measure...
