Abstract :
A diverse set of speech data was labelled in three sites by 13 transcribers with differing levels of expertise, using GToBI, a consensus transcription system for German intonation. Overall inter-transcriber-consistency suggests that, with training, labellers can acquire sufficient skill with GToBI for large-scale database labelling
