11. A computing device for recognizing a received phoneme, the computing device comprising: a module configured to generate an expanded stored-phoneme vector from each of a plurality of class phonemes; a module configured to transform the expanded stored-phoneme vector into an orthogonal form associated with a hypersphere having a center and a radius; and a module configured to recognize a received phoneme by generating an expanded received-signal vector associated with the received phoneme into an orthogonal form for analysis in the hypersphere.
