Speech recognition by machine has finally come of age in a practical sense. A major problem in speech recognition, however, stems from the large variance of different utterances for the same word. This paper proposes an efficient method of achieving high accuracy speaker- independent isolated-word recognition through the implementation of associative memories and neural networks. The basic architecture of such a process involves two-stages: speech analysis and recognition.
