Abstract :
In this paper we present an analysis of the intonation for the Basque language. Based on the Fujisaki and Hirose (1984) model, parameters for a set of about 300 sentences have been manually and automatically calculated and used to train a set of regression trees. Results show that the model is valid for Basque
