Abstract
We present a disfluency model derived from
analysing transcriptions from the AMI meeting
corpus. Ourmodel goes beyond previous
work in that it discriminates several classes
that are elsewhere regarded the same. Also,
we introduce completely new classes of naturally
occurring phenomena. Our annotations
show significant occurrences of these
new classes. An evaluation of annotations
from four different annotators reveals a high
agreement, = 0.92 - 0.93,AC1 = 0.93.
