Abstract:
Although there was, and still continues, extensive research and advancements in
speech recognition on English language, there has been little research done on Arabic
language. In addition, most of the research done is either for the standard Arabic
language or the Egyptian colloquial language. Commercial applications related to this
field are mostly based on telephony technology. In this thesis, the implementation of a
Lebanese colloquial Arabic discrete speech recognition is described. According to our
knowledge, the thesis proposed here is the first attempt to implement a speech
recognition system for the Lebanese colloquial Arabic language.
