Computer Assisted Pronunciation Teaching (CAPT) and Pedagogy: Improving EFL learners’ Pronunciation Using Clear Pronunciation 2 Software
This study examined the impact of Clear Pronunciation 2 software on teaching English suprasegmental features, focusing on stress, rhythm and intonation. In particular, the software covers five topics in relation to suprasegmental features including consonant cluster, word stress, connected speech, sentence stress and intonation. Seven Iranian EFL learners participated in this study. The study l...
متن کاملComputer Assisted Pronunciation Training
Computer Assisted Pronunciation Training systems have become popular tools to train on second languages. Many second language learners prefer to train on pronunciation in a stress free environment with no other listeners. There exists no such tool for training on pronunciation of the Norwegian language. Pronunciation exercises in training systems should be directed at important properties in th...
متن کاملBreast Cytology: Current Issues and Future Directions
Breast cytology, in particularly fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB), has been used for many years as a diagnostic tool for managing patients with breast lesions. In experienced hands, FNAB is highly sensitive and specific. Other benefits include its low cost, minimal invasiveness, and ability to provide same-day diagnosis. Despite all these benefits, FNAB has gradually been replaced by core n...
متن کاملDiscriminatively Trained Acoustic Model for Improving Mispronunciation Detection and Diagnosis in Computer Aided Pronunciation Training (CAPT)
In this study, we propose a discriminative training algorithm to jointly minimize mispronunciation detection errors (i.e., false rejection and false acceptances) and diagnosis errors (i.e., correctly pinpointing mispronunciations but incorrectly stating how they are wrong). An optimization procedure, similar to Minimum Word Error (MWE) discriminative training, is developed to refine the ML-trai...
