Abstract
An automatic speech / speaker recognition (ASSR) system has to adapt to possible changes of speaker and environment conditions, and act as close as possible to the way a human recognizes speeches / speakers. This kind of very complex system has to deal with speech signals, looking for the integration of different information sources; and this is precisely the reason to use fuzzy logic. The main objective of this paper is the description of a robust, intelligent and adaptive system, modeled as a multi-agent system (MAS), forming a recursive hierarchy of MAS denominated holonic MAS.
