Automatic Intelligibilit and Diagnosis of Critical pro for Computer-assisted Pronu

چکیده
We introduce a novel method to diagnose pronunciation errors that are most critical to the intelligibility of L2 learners. A preliminary 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 which errors are most critical to intelligibility. Experimental results proved the validity of the approach.

متن کاملA review of neural network detection methods for breast cancer: review article
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women and the earlier it is diagnosed, the easier it is to treat. The most common way to diagnose breast cancer is mammography. Mammography is a simple chest x-ray and a tool for early detection of non-palpable breast cancers and tumors. However, due to some limitations of this method such as low sensitivity especially in dense breasts, other method...
