| Abstract | ||
| Abstract Direct recognition of phonemes in speaker independent speech recognition systems still cannot guarantee good enough recognition results. But grouping phonemes at first then trying to recognize the phoneme itself is a promising field. On the other hand wavelets are widely used in speech and speaker recognition systems, this is motivated by the ability of wavelet coefficients to capture important time and frequency features. In this work the effect of the wavelet filter type on the efficiency of a phoneme recognition system is investigated (specifically fricatives). The Probabilistic neural network was used as a pattern matching stage for its well known and power full ability in solving classification problems. It was found that the Daubechies wavelet family (generally from db15 to db23) is a good candidate for a fricatives phoneme recognition system that is based on wavelets as a feature extraction stage. | ||
