In this paper we investigated Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) based Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) by using limited Arabic vocabulary corpora. These limited Arabic vocabulary subsets are digits and vowels carried by specific carrier words. In addition to this, Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based ASR systems are designed and compared to two ANN based systems, namely Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) and recurrent architectures, by using the same corpora. All systems are isolated word speech recognizers. The ANN based recognition system achieved 99.5% correct digit recognition. On the other hand, the HMM based recognition system achieved 98.1% correct digit recognition. With vowels carrier words, the MLP and recurrent ANN based recognition systems achieved 92.13% and 98.06, respectively, correct vowel recognition; but the HMM based recognition system achieved 91.6% correct vowel recognition.
