Abstract
The use of speech in man-machine communication is becoming increasingly important and research in this area is now a part of computer science activity, related both to signal processing, pattern recognition and artificial intelligence. The actual applications of speech recognition presently use isolated word recognition systems but the most interesting and promising domains of man-machine dialog will require connected speech recognition and understanding. Although significant results have already been obtained (see for instance (1)) the presently available systems obviously have still to be improved.
