In this paper, we have analyzed the impact of confusions on the robustness of phoneme recognitions system. The confusions are detected at the pronunciation and the confusions matrices of the phoneme recognizer. The confusions show that some similarities between phonemes at the pronunciation affect significantly the recognition rates. This paper proposes to understand those confusions in order to improve the performance of the phoneme recognition system by isolating the problematic phonemes. Confusion analysis leads to build a new hierarchical recognizer using new phoneme distribution and the information from the confusion matrices. This new hierarchical phoneme recognition system shows significant improvements of the recognition rates on TIMIT database.
