Abstract	Automatic dialog systems tested with naive users are often confronted with spe cial speaking styles as e g words pro duced with emphatic or contrastive ac cent Such utterances usually cause prob lems for word recognizers because they were not included in the training data It is thus important for the improvement of future systems to be able to collect utterances containing contrastive accents produced as natural as possible We de scribe in this paper an automatic simula tion system for provoking and collecting contrastive accents With this system recording sessions were conducted in total word tokens produced either with de fault or with contrastive accent were col lected We discuss the results of an au tomatic classi cation as well as the rele vance of extracted prosodic features for the marking of contrastive accents
