Abstract

In this article, we are presenting the work we did in the context of the recognition of "Baoule" Language spoken phrases. Since we consider a particular case of the problem, we therefore will only take into account the vowel-consonant transition, while stopping on the Phoneme recognition. We are proposing a Phoneme separation algorithm, based on the consonants and vowels energy levels difference. We are also proposing a recognition algorithm by analysing the formants.
