Application of the pairwise variability index of speech rhythm with particle swarm optimization to the classification of native and non-native accents. |
Abstract | ||
---|---|---|
•A new rhythm metric, Optimized Pairwise Variability Index (O-PVI), is proposed.•The O-PVI provides a generalization of conventional PVI rhythm metrics.•Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is used to select the best O-PVI parameters.•The combined PSO/O-PVI approach achieves best classification of Arabic native/non-native speakers.•Experiments compare interval- and PVI-based rhythm metrics.
