Abstract
This paper describes the results of a preliminary study on the modeling of fundamental frequency contours of Thai utterances. Based on our previous studies on the analysis and modeling of F0 contours of Standard Chinese, the command-response model is expected to apply also to Thai if we assume the existence of both positive and negative polarities for the tone commands. The results indicate that the assumption is valid and the model can be used for F0 contour generation of Thai utterances.
