Hello

I would like to integrate a phoneme duration in my HMM definition

But I didn’t found many details in the htk book, even I found this note in page 93 of htk3.3 book :

In addition to the above, any model or state can have an associated vector of duration parameters {d}(No current HTK tool can estimate or use these.)”

 

Does it mean that parameter duration is not available in HTK3.3 or what???? 

 

Can you help me, and thank in advance

[HTK-Users] can htk incorporate duration information into hmm?
