We first derive feature from spoken letter. Mel-frequency cepstral coefficient (MFCC) has been used to characterize a feature. Dynamic time warping (DTW) employed to calculate the distance of an unknown letter with the stored ones. K-nearest neighbors (KNN) algorithm is used to improve accuracy in noisy environment. %K Automatic Speech Recognition %K MFCC %K DTW %K KNN %U http://www.ijer.in/ijer/publication/v3s2/IJER_2014_211.pdf
