Optimizing Computer-assisted Pronunciation Instruction by Selecting Relevant Training Topics

We introduce a novel method to diagnose pronunciation errors that are most critical to the intelligibility of L2 learners. A prelimiary study showed that error rates computed by a speech recognition-based system can be used to characterize intelligibility. We deduce a probabilistic algorithm to derive intelligibility from error rates. We also define an error priority function that indicates whi...

Discovering topics in text datasets by visualizing relevant words

When dealing with large collections of documents, it is imperative to quickly get an overview of the texts’ contents. In this paper we show how this can be achieved by using a clustering algorithm to identify topics in the dataset and then selecting and visualizing relevant words, which distinguish a group of documents from the rest of the texts, to summarize the contents of the documents belon...

Avicenna's Anatomical Legacy as Seen Through the Relevant Topics in Modern Anat-omy

Background: Makhaarej Al-Horouf, the study of speech sounds by Avicenna is a valuable piece of work in the study of speech sounds, which was written about ten centuries ago. It contains six chapters on sound, anatomy of vocal tract, and phonetics. It is amazing to find that Avicenna’s explanations are congruent with the findings of modern scholarship in relevant topics. The study was intended t...

Identifying Topics by Position

This paper addresses the problem of identifying likely topics of texts by their position in the text. It describes the automated training and evaluation of an Optimal Position Policy, a method of locating the likely positions of topic-bearing sentences based on genre-specific regularities of discourse structure. This method can be used in applications such as information retrieval, routing, and...
