      Heh heh, noise. :P I believe that your use of "phoneme" was the first
      time I have encountered the term. Learn something new every week. ;)
      
      I have been working on the system I mentioned in the above post for
      the past week or so (I graduate and all of a sudden, I have all this
      free time... weird ;). I have been looking at the input that one
      gets when recording from a PCM wave source (just the typical
      microphone on a typical PC), and have been trying to come up with
      ways to generalize it (i.e. stick it in a self organizing map - see
      the above message for links).
      
      This is (roughly) what I see (apologies if you cannot view this in
      fixed-width):
      
      
      ***
      ** *
      ** **** **
      * ** * *
      *----------------*----*----*-------------* Repeats...
      ** * * *
      * ** *
      * *
      ** **
      **
      
      From what little I know about sound, this seems like a typical
      sample for human speech (granted, this one is just something I made
      up, but it looks about right). Slicing the wave up into separate
      crests and troughs is pretty simple (just watch for where the signal
      crosses over zero and append ones that are too short to the previous
      one). You end up with a series of partial waves like:
      
      ***
      ** *
      ** ****
      * **
      *----------------*
      
      
      *----*
      ** *
      *
      
      
      **
      * *
      *----*
      
      
      *-------------*
      * *
      ** *
      * *
      ** **
      **
      
      
      ***
      ** *
      ** ****
      * **
      *----------------* (first one again, and so on)
      
      
      What I would like to know is if there is a good way (i.e. not brute
      force) to figure out when a wave has finished and is now repeating.
      In a perfect world, you could compare the 1st to the 2nd, 3rd, 4th
      etc. until a match was found, then increment to the 2nd and the
      match + 1, compare, and they too would match up. However, in the
      real world I suspect that the waveforms would get out of sync fairly
      quickly which would lead to the expensive iterative comparisons to
      re-sync the pattern. It seems there should be a Better Way.
      Actually, now that I think about it, I don't care if the wave is
      split or not, it was just the direction I was heading... Perhaps a
      small window could be slid over the wave and compared to a window at
      the start of the wave? When they match, the wave has most likely
      repeated?
      
      I suspect that someone has already solved this problem (it seems
      simple enough to be fairly common). However, I have had a hard time
      coming up with decent search terms. :/ Anyone? Anyone? :)
      
      Thanks,
      Eli
