Pronunciation error detection device, pronunciation error detection method, program

摘要

The present invention provides a pronunciation error detection apparatus capable of following a text without the need for a correct sentence even when erroneous recognition such as a reading error occurs. The pronunciation error detection apparatus comprises: a speech recognition part that recognizes the speech in speech data based on a speech recognition model for a non-native speaker, and outputs speech recognition results, reliability and time information; a reliability determination part that outputs the speech recognition results with higher reliability than a predetermined threshold and the corresponding time information as the determined speech recognition results and the determined time information; and a pronunciation error detection part that outputs a phoneme as a pronunciation error when reliability for each phoneme in the speech recognition results using the native speaker speech recognition model under a weakly constraining grammar is greater than the reliability of the corresponding phoneme in the speech recognition results using the native speaker acoustic model under a constraining grammar in which the determined speech recognition results are correct for the speech data in a segment specified by the determined time information.
