Abstract: Mispronunciation is commonly observed in children from age 2 to 8 years. Some of the common mispronunciations are stopping, fronting, backing and affrication. These processes are known as phonological processes. Identification of these processes is crucial in studying the vocal tract development pattern and treating the phonological disorders in children. The features that clearly discriminate correctly pronounced phoneme from corresponding mispronounced phoneme have to be compared to identify the phonological processes. This paper focuses on the analysis of mispronounced alveolar approximant (/r/) substituted with voiced fricative consonant (/?/). In this work, spectral and pitch related features are considered for the analysis using scatter plots and histograms. From the analysis, it is observed that the energy feature against 2nd and 4th cepstral coefficients achieves 75% and 65% discrimination respectively. � 2015 IEEE.
