[comp.ai] Speech rec. using neural nets

kgeisel@nfsun.UUCP (kurt geisel) (08/27/88)

Teuvo Kohonen describes success at Helsinki University with a
speaker-independent neural system which recognizes phonemes (the box spits
out phonemes, not words - you would still need a sophisticated parsing stage)
in the article "The 'Neural' Phonetic Typewriter" in the March 1988 issue of
the IEEE's _Computer_.
