Classifying Rhoticity of /r/ in Speech Sound Disorder using Age-and-Sex Normalized Formants
Mispronunciation detection tools could increase treatment access for speech sound disorders impacting, e.g., /r/. We show age-and-sex normalized formant estimation outperforms cepstral representation for detection of fully rhotic vs. derhotic /r/ in the PERCEPT-R Corpus. Gated recurrent neural networks trained on this feature set achieve a mean test participant-specific F1-score =.81 ({\sigma}x=.10, med = .83, n = 48), with post hoc modeling showing no significant effect of child age or sex.
