Computer-assisted pronunciation training—Speech synthesis is almost all you need
AbstractThe research community has long studied computer-assisted pronunciation training (CAPT) methods in non-native speech. Researchers focused on studying various model architectures, such as Bayesian networks and deep learning methods, as ...
Highlights- Pronunciation error detection is framed as a synthetic speech generation task.

Foreign accent conversion in computer assisted pronunciation training
Learners of a second language practice their pronunciation by listening to and imitating utterances from native speakers. Recent research has shown that choosing a well-matched native speaker to imitate can have a positive impact on pronunciation ...
Synthesizing English emphatic speech for multimodal corrective feedback in computer-aided pronunciation training
Emphasis plays an important role in expressive speech synthesis in highlighting the focus of an utterance to draw the attention of the listener. We present a hidden Markov model (HMM)-based emphatic speech synthesis model. The ultimate objective is to ...
