Personalized Pronunciation Practice Recommendation in Non-native French Speakers Using Graph-Based Analysis
摘要
This paper presents a framework aimed at improving the pronunciation accuracy of non-native French speakers, particularly those preparing for the DELF A2 exam. It leverages advanced speech recognition and phonetic analysis to identify frequent pronunciation errors at both word and phoneme levels. A graph-based knowledge base captures common mispronunciation patterns, which guide personalized pronunciation lessons focusing on prevalent errors. The system has been introduced to ten second-year French program students from Chiang Mai University, and early results indicate improvements in pronunciation accuracy, especially in vowel distinction and reducing errors with similar-sounding words. Ongoing data collection will further refine the system to address the unique pronunciation challenges faced by Thai learners. This adaptive, data-driven approach has demonstrated potential for enhancing pronunciation fluency, with future work focusing on broader scalability and application to diverse learner populations.
