Huu Tuong Tu, Hanh Nguyen, Thien Van Luong, Nguyen Tien Cuong et al.
Proposes a method for constructing statistical graphs to learn phoneme confusion patterns, and introduces a language-specific strategy to capture pronunciation differences across native language backgrounds. Achieves an F1-score of 59.52% on the L2-ARCTIC benchmark, outperforming several competitive baselines.
Original abstract
Mispronunciation Detection and Diagnosis (MDD) has gained increasing importance in computer-assisted language learning and speech technology in recent years. In this paper, we propose a method for constructing statistical graphs that enable models to learn phoneme confusion patterns represented as directed graphs. Furthermore, we introduce a language-specific strategy to capture systematic pronunciation differences across various native language (L1) backgrounds. The effectiveness of our approach is demonstrated through extensive experiments on the L2-ARCTIC benchmark, where it achieves an F1-score of 59.52%, outperforming several competitive baselines.
