Abstract :
A method for achieving isolated-utterance speech recognition using an associative recall algorithm is presented. The feature analysis methods used, as well as the implementation of the associative memory scheme, are highlighted. Preliminary experimental results have proved this method to be quite robust in the recognition aspect. Most of the experiments were performed with speaker-dependent tests and proved to be quite successful with a very limited vocabulary
