A speaker independent isolated Arabic word recognition system has been successfully implemented and tested. End-point detection and voiced/unvoiced segmentation algorithms are based on energy and zero-crossing rate (ZCR) using adaptive ZCR threshold. Formants are extracted using ZCI histograms obtained from filtered speech signal [1]. The speaker independent recognition rate is about 96% for ten Arabic words.
