            Abstract : 
A technique is introduced that analyzes the time evolutions of some parameters of the speech waveform. Suitable algorithms provide a description of these evolutions when a word is pronounced. Descriptions can be seen as the phrases of a language produced by a generative grammar. Recognition is performed by parsing the descriptions. Some experimental results are reported.
