Abstract
A study provided an experimental evaluation of rhythm metrics between read and spontaneous speech in Japanese and English. Spontaneous speech was collected from two existing data Sets. Forty-eight utterances were retrieved from three native speakers of Japanese, English, and six English-speaking Japanese subjects. All were manually labeled using Praat and segmented following Arvaniti. The resulting data were modeled, with linear mixed- effects regression using the LME4 package to investigate the relationship between the metrics and the language groups across the speech types.
