Those following the audio tagging thread already know this, but here is the "official" announcement anyway:

Over the past few weeks I have (with a lot of help from this forum) computed an updated german voxforge model for CMU pocketsphinx (SVN trunk).

The model is available for download here:

http://goofy.zamia.org/voxforge/de/

Some statistics about this model (more in voxforge.html and audio-stats.txt):

  • 11902 words in dictionary
  • statistical language model included built using the German Parole Corpus
  • Sentence error rate 6.9%, word error rate 1.9%
  • 2276.39min of audio material used
the model is currently dominated by two speakers (ralfherzog and me :o) ) so do not expect such low error rates for other speakers just now (the model should be usable for command and control applications for other speakers, though).
Please help improving the model - simply by uploading more audio material to VoxForge. I intend to update the model from time to time when new material becomes available (yes, I will also continue to produce material myself but help from others is definitely needed).
All scripts used to generate the model along with some documentation is available on github:
https://github.com/gooofy/voxforge

Hallo

May i request you to share the audio files 16khz with us?

I would require the files for recognizing numbers.. I can add them to my systems.. Ofcourse i will add all generated audiofile samples for my acoustic model for others too ..

sorry for my late response - I have finally found the time to pack and upload the remaining audio files I produced over the past weeks.

everything is available in voxforge / de / audio / main :

Kleine Anmerkung.

In deinen Submissions sind eine Reihe von Fremdwörtern, wie Hidden Markov Modell. Obwohl sie praktisch natürlich zum deutschen Sprachgebrauch gehören führen Wörter wie "Hidden" auf unserem System zu gewissen Problemen. ( kleine Transitionmatrix Probleme).

Im allgmeinen sollte man fürs erste vermutlich keine Fremdwörter benutzen.Ansonsten . Good work :thumbsup:


Es exisitieren eine ganze Reihe von Papern im Versuch diese zu behandeln, aber ich glaube nicht das irgend eines davon bereits umgesetzt wurde.

mir ist sehr unklar, warum solche woerter zu problemen fuehren - enthalten sie phoneme, die solche systeme sonst nicht kennen?

grundsaetzlich sollte es doch voellig egal sein, ob es sich um fremdwoerter handelt oder nicht - zumal gerade das deutsche ja recht arm an "eigenen" woertern ist (und selbst die sind ja oft lateinischen oder griechischen ursprungs ;) ) - mir ist nichtmal ganz klar, wie ein computer diese unterscheidung ueberhaupt treffen koennte.

wie dem auch seie - ich sehe im moment fuer mich keine moeglichkeit, ohne fremdwoerter auszukommen, weil ich in richtung eines dialogsystems plane, das moeglichst mit alltagssprache zurecht kommen soll und da gehoeren zumindest woerter wie "computer" und "handy" einfach dazu, auch wenn es fremdwoerter sind.

Es kommt sehr darauf an, welches Wörterbuch dahinter liegt.

Nehmen wir hier mal gleich das Beispiel Handy.

Lies es einmal deutsch und einmal englisch vor.


Sollte ich es ungefähr den wortlaut transcibieren würde ich "händi" nehmen .  Natürlich wissen Programme wie espeak das nicht und machen was anderes daraus. "Hand y" wäre eine Variante aber ich weiss es mometan nicht da die Kombination dy so gut wie gar nicht in deutschen nicht-fremdwörtern auftaucht.

Man müßte also erst die englischen Phonemereihe erstellen und diese dann in eine äquivalente deutsche Phonemreihe umwandeln.

You get my point. Solange man auch dein Wörterbuch mit übernimmt und du überall darauf geachtet hast, sollte es eigentlich gehen, aber Leute nur auf Basis des voxforge Audio Materials etwas entwickeln sollte man Fremdwörter in den Submissions möglichst gering halten.

Thank you very much guenter for the work and so much effort:-)


I made a base model for simon from this model and attached it here.


This is also linked from KDE-Files.org


Thanks again.

Thanks for your effort! Tiny problem: the demonstration script in your archive refers to model_parameters/voxforge.cd_cont_4000, but the directory is called model_parameters/voxforge.cd_cont_3000 . A question: Can I use your files with g2p ( https://code.google.com/p/phonetisaurus/ ) somehow? The main problem is that I want to create my own dictionary, but g2p has only training data for the english language. Your already provide a .dic-File, but I want to make my own with only the words I need, additionally I have have some special (key-)words with aren't in your dictionary, and I don't want to transcribe them manually ;-) Examples are Cubie, Nibobee and Julya

> Can I use your files with g2p ( https://code.google.com/p/phonetisaurus/ ) somehow?

Yes, you can use the dictionary in phonetisaurus. You could probably just try it. You might want to convert the format though (care about number of spaces between word and phonemes).
