Some pre-workshop results

We've changed a number of things since these models were built (types of observations, dictionaries, ...) so these are just a rough guideline of what to expect.

Monophone 10 1 31.2 uses MIT PLPs, 64 Gaussians/state, ins penalty = 0, lm_scale = .8, am_scale = 0.2; not fully tuned

Workshop results

NOTE:

  • Click in the Model column for a (currently very brief) definition of the model.
  • Results in italics are provisional (e.g. still being tuned).
  • All systems are GMTK unless otherwise indicated. Tuning is on CV_small unless otherwise indicated.
  • Results on the full CV set will in general not be done. The column is included only to report those full-CV numbers that we happen to have from initial experiments.
  • Boxes marked '*' are ones we don't plan to fill in unless we have spare time or we absolutely need them for comparison with another model.
  • Initials next to models indicate the person working on it. Models with no names have yet to be taken up by someone.
