Impacts of multicollinearity on CAPT modalities: An heterogeneous machine learning framework for computer-assisted French phoneme pronunciation training.

Phoneme pronunciations are usually considered as basic skills for learning a foreign language. Practicing the pronunciations in a computer-assisted way is helpful in a self-directed or long-distance learning environment. Recent researches indicate that machine learning is a promising method to build...
