Abstract

In hopes of resolving the issue of poor quality of information input for teaching spoken English online, the study creates an English teaching assistance model based on a recognition algorithm named dynamic time warping (DTW) and relies on automated voice recognition technology. In hopes of improving the algorithm's efficiency, the study modifies the speech signal's time-domain properties during the pre-processing stage and enhances the algorithm's performance in terms of computational effort and storage space. Finally, a simulation experiment is employed to evaluate the model application's efficacy. The study's revised DTW model, which achieves recognition rates of above 95% for all phonetic symbols and tops the list for cloudy consonant recognition with rates of 98.5%, 98.8%, and 98.7% throughout the three tests, respectively, is demonstrated by the study's findings. The enhanced model for DTW voice recognition also presents higher efficiency and requires less time for training and testing. The DTW model's KS value, which is the highest among the models analyzed in the KS value analysis, is 0.63. Among the comparative models, the model also presents the lowest curve position for both test functions. This shows that the upgraded DTW model features superior voice recognition capabilities, which could significantly improve online English education and lead to better teaching outcomes.
