Parallel VLSI neural system design for time-delay speech recognition computing

Abstract

Neural system, as processors of time-sequence patterns, have been successfully applied to several speaker-dependent speech recognition computing. They can be efficiently implemented by a pipelined architecture. In this paper, parallel time-delay speech recognition computing for VLSI neural systems is presented. The system design methodology is to emphasize coordination between computational model, architectural description, and VLSI systolic implementation. Examples of time-delay speech recognition applications to VLSI neural system design and performance analysis are given to illustrate effectiveness of the parallel computation.
