A method for studying speech rhythm is presented, using Fourier analysis of the amplitude envelope of bandpass-filtered speech. Rather than quantifying rhythm with time-domain measurements of interval durations, a frequency-domain representation is used--the rhythm spectrum. This paper describes the method in detail, and discusses approaches to characterizing rhythm with low-frequency spectral information.
