DP-matching with NN-hardware

[Nitin Indurkhya]

one of the problems i'm facing in analyzing time-series data with DP-matching
methods is that when the number of templates is very large, the run-time
performance is quite poor (i.e. it is definitely not possible to do it in 
real-time).

i recall reading somewhere about DP-matching with NN-hardware. can someone
give me a reference on that. also, any pointers to more recent work in this
area would be appreciated. i am using the one-stage dp method discussed in
the excellent article by hermann ney.

thanks in advance,
