Abstract: This paper presents a model that assigns prosodic structure to unrestricted text.The model is linguistically motivated and also uses constraints on phrase length.For the implementation an XML-pipeline is used as a data-architecture.The output can be processed by a text-to-speech synthesiser for determining the locations of phrase breaks.The model outperforms another rule-based approach, and achieves either comparable results as a statistical model or comes close to those results, while being psychologically more plausible.
