چکیده
This contribution presents part of the work initiated at CTT on the development of speech technology to assist non-native speakers in learning Swedish. This study mainly focuses on the automatic evaluation of mispronunciations at a phonetic level. We describe a new database we have collected for this work. Then we report the reliability of several phonetic scores to locate automatically segmental problems in student utterances.

متن کاملAutomatic pronunciation scoring of words and sentences independent from the non-native's first language
This paper describes an approach for automatic scoring of pronunciation quality for non-native speech. It is applicable regardless of the foreign language student’s mother tongue. Sentences and words are considered as scoring units. Additionally, mispronunciation and phoneme confusion statistics for the target language phoneme set are derived from human annotations and word level scoring result...
متن کاملMaximum F1-Score Discriminative Training for Automatic Mispronunciation Detection in Computer-Assisted Language Learning
In this paper, we propose and evaluate a novel discriminative training criterion for hidden Markov model (HMM) based automatic mispronunciation detection in computer-assisted pronunciation training. The objective function is formulated as a smooth form of the F1-score on the annotated non-native speech database. The objective function maximization is achieved by using extended Baum Welch form l...

Automatic mispronunciation detection plays a crucial role in a computer assisted pronunciation training (CAPT) system. The main purpose of mispronunciation detection is to judge whether the pronunciations of a non-native speaker are correct or not. In general, the process of mispronunciation detection can be divided into two parts: 1) a front-end feature extraction module that generates pronunc...
متن کاملAutomatic Pronunciation Evaluation And Mispronunciation Detection Using CMUSphinx
Feedback on pronunciation is vital for spoken language teaching. Automatic pronunciation evaluation and feedback can help non-native speakers to identify their errors, learn sounds and vocabulary, and improve their pronunciation performance. Such speech recognition can be performed using Sphinx trained on a database of native exemplar pronunciation and non-native examples of frequent mistakes. ...
