| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to build an automatic L2 speech evaluation system which predicts evaluation scores given by experienced teachers who are L2 users. The predictability of the evaluation scores by speech characteristics of learner performance data is investigated in two types of speech. Based on the results of the pilot studies, an automatic L2 speech evaluation system was constructed, and its reliability was examined. The results indicate that the system is capable of delivering reliable scores in L2 assessment of read-aloud speech.
