Analysis and synthesis of intonation using the Tilt model. (2000, background): “Given the just noticeable difference for F0 in natural speech is about 4 Hz (Hess, 1983), the figures for the comparison between the synthesized and smoothed contours show that the synthetic contours are nearly identical to the smoothed ones.”
