In the Helsinki University of Technology, in the Department of Technical Physics, the group of Professor Teuvo Kohonen has been studying the usage of neural nets for speech recognition for several years. Professor Kohonen gave a talk on their results in the Finnish AI symposium in this year. They have an experimental system which uses a neural net board in a PC. I cannot remember whether the paper is written in English or in Finnish, but should you wish to get the symposium proceedings, contact Finnish Artificial Intelligence Society (FAIS) c/o Dr Antti Hautamaeki HM & V Research Helsinki, Finland I understand Kohonen's results are comparable to other approaches to speech recognition. --- Andy -
