Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods are provided for providing a score for a spontaneous non-native speech response to a prompt. A transcription of the spontaneous speech response is accessed. A plurality of clauses are identified within the spontaneous speech response, where identifying a clause includes identifying a beginning boundary and an end boundary of the clause in the spontaneous speech response. A plurality of disfluencies in the spontaneous speech response is identified. One or more proficiency metrics are calculated based on the plurality of identified clauses and the plurality of the identified disfluencies, and a score for the spontaneous speech response is generated based on the one or more proficiency metrics.
