Step 10 - Making Tied-State Triphones

You will be using the global.ded script you created in a previous step, confirm that its contents are as follows:

AS sp
RS cmu
MP sil sil sp

Then execute the HDMan command against the entire lexicon file, not just the training dictionnary we have used thus far (that is why we needed to create a phonetically balanced grammar in Step 2):

$HDMan -A -D -T 1 -b sp -n fulllist -g global.ded -l flog dict-tri ../lexicon/voxforge_lexicon

this creates 2 files:

Next create a new fulllist1 file and copy the contents of the fulllist and triphones1 into it. Copy the fixfullist.pl script to your 'voxforge/manual folder', and execute as follows to remove any duplicate entries:

$perl fixfulllist.pl fulllist1 fulllist

Your updated file should look like this: fulllist

tree.hed script

Next you create a new script called tree.hed in your 'voxforge/manual' folder containing the following:

RO 100 stats

TR 0

TR 2

(Note: make sure you have a blank line at the end of this file)

Here is a short description of the commands contained in tree.hed:

RO - outlier threshhold
1st "TR" - trace level
QS - question - defined by the user (see quests.hed file in HTK distribution - RM demo folder)

(each QS command loads a single question and that question is defined by a set of contexts)

2nd "TR" - enables intermediate level progress reporting
TB - clusters one specific setof states - created with the mkclscript.prl command
AU - synthesize previously unseen triphones, i.e. use the set of newly created decision trees to make all the triphones included in the list
CO - compact the model set: some state definitions will be exactly the same (same means and variances etc.). To save space, only one of these states is kept in the definition, others are added to the tiedlist.
ST - save the decision trees in a file

Refer to the HTK book for details on these commands.

Next run the mkclscript.prl (you should have already copied it from your HTK folder in 'htk-3.3/samples/RMHTK/perl_scripts' folder to your voxforge/HTK_scripts folder) script as follows:

$perl ../HTK_scripts/mkclscript.prl TB 350 monophones0 >> tree.hed

Then add the following to the end of your tree.hed file:

TR 1

AU "fulllist"
CO "tiedlist"

ST "trees"

Your file should look like this: tree.hed

Next create 3 more folders: hmm13-15

Then execute the HHEd command:

$HHEd -A -D -T 1 -H hmm12/macros -H hmm12/hmmdefs -M hmm13 tree.hed triphones1

This command creates 3 files:

Next run HERest 2 more times:

$HERest -A -D -T 1 -T 1 -C config -I wintri.mlf -s stats -t 250.0 150.0 3000.0 -S train.scp -H hmm13/macros -H hmm13/hmmdefs -M hmm14 tiedlist

This command creates 2 files:

$HERest -A -D -T 1 -T 1 -C config -I wintri.mlf -s stats -t 250.0 150.0 3000.0 -S train.scp -H hmm14/macros -H hmm14/hmmdefs -M hmm15 tiedlist

This creates 2 files:

The hmmdefs file in the hmm15 folder, along with the tiedlist file, can now be used with Julian to recognize your speech!

Italian tree.hed

By occimanete - 11/20/2009 - 2 Replies

Hello folks.

So, did any italian made already the italian tree.hed for the festival phoneset and relative Lexicon? If the answer is negative, does anybody know how long does it take to make one? more than one or two days? because in 5 days I need to submit my final thesis and maybe I have to try to see what results i get with monophone and give up with the triphone.

Occimanete.

Some mistakes and a new trick

By tpavelka - 5/6/2009 - 3 Replies

First, there are mistakes in the description of HHEd commands, here is my correction:

AU - synthesize previously unseen triphones, i.e. use the set of newly created decision trees to make all the triphones included in the list

CO - compact the model set: some state definitions will be exactly the same (same means and variances etc.). To save space, only one of these states is kept in the definition, others are added to the tiedlist.

ST - save the decision trees in a file

Second, the creation of a full triphone list by HDMan must be done every time new triphones appear in testing data and does not work for cross-word triphones (these are used e.g. in HDecode). My solution for this is simply to synthesize all possible triphones. With the monophone set used by VoxForge acoustic models there is a total of 81315 triphones which translates to about 3.5MB of extra space for the HMM definitions (text form).

A full triphone list can be generated by the script full_list.prl which can be found in the directory samples/RMHTK/perl_scripts which comes with the HTK distribution.

The full triphone HMM generation can be done using HHEd:

Assume the all-triphone list is stored in file xwrd_full_list these are the commands to go into the script file (let's call it synthesize.hed):

LT "trees"

AU "xwrd_full_list"

CO "xwrdtiedlist"

HHEd is run wiht the following parameters:

HHed -T 1 -H hmmdefs -H macros -M hmm_synthesized synthesize.hed tiedlist

where hmm_synthesized is the directory to store the new files.

contradiction whith htk book????

By imene - 4/29/2009 - 2 Replies

you said in this tutorial

"You will be using the global.ded script you created in a previous step, confirm that its contents are as follows:

AS sp
RS cmu
MP sil sil sp

But in htk book it mentioned that the list "fulllist can be generating like that:

This list can be generated, for example, by using HDMan on the entire dictionary (not just the training dictionary), converting it to triphones using the command TC and outputting
a list of the distinct triphones to a file using the option -n :

HDMan -b sp -n fulllist -g global.ded -l flog beep-tri beep.

is the use of the command TC not important in the script global.ded??

missing state 2 for b

By kmaclean - 2/26/2008

Lucian said (from this thread):

I realized that this "missing state 2 for b" problem is due to the double chop in HTK_Scripts/mkclscript.prl script, as instructed by the tutorial instructions.
After I change it back to a single "chop;" command, everything works.

This might occur if you are running the "HTK_Scripts/mkclscript.pl" script in Cygwin/Windows.

For example

QS "R_dd" { *+dd }

Possible error in tutorial?

By Manuel - 9/7/2007 - 2 Replies

In the last step there's the following instruction:

Then execute the HDMan command against the entire lexicon file, not just the training dictionnary we have used thus far (that is why we needed to create a phonetically balanced grammar in Step 2):

$HDMan -A -D -T 1 -b sp -n fulllist -g global.ded -l flog dict-tri ../lexicon/voxforge_lexicon

But this introduce some phonemes that are only in the voxforge_lexicon, not in our dict, so there are no audio file for that.

This situation is the cause of an error when do:

$HHEd -A -D -T 1 -H hmm12/macros -H hmm12/hmmdefs -M hmm13 tree.hed triphones1

ERROR [+2662] FindProtoModel: no proto for p in hSet

"p" is only an example of phonemes without audio registration.

I've try to use dict instead of ../lexicon/voxforge_lexicon, and it work correctly.

I'm wrong?

Thanks

I understand that it try to open t+aa as file, but it isn't a file, it the first line of tiedlist file. It's wrong how I use HERest and its parameter?

Can you help me?

P.s. I promise that it's the last time that I ask help to you ... I hope. :D
