  • Abstract
    This article develops a speaker-dependent Arabic phonemes recognition system using MFCC analysis and the VQ-LBG algorithm. The system is examined with and without vector quantization in order to analyze the effect of compression in an acoustic parameterization phase. Our experimental results show that vector quantization using a codebook of size 16 achieves good results compared to the system without quantization for a majority of the phonemes studied.
