Dear VoxForgians!

 

I would like to train the most recent German AM for HTK/Julius according to the tutorial (http://www.voxforge.org/home/dev/acousticmodels/linux/adapt/htkjulius). It requires the following files: 

  • hmmdefs
  • macros
  • tiedlist
  • config
  • wav_config
  • dict
  • stats
of which I don't have "config", "wav_config" and "dict". I figured that "dict" contains words and corresponding pronunciation. But does it have to be in that exact format of:
Word [WORD] w o r d ? Or can I move on with only the first and last culumns? 
All hints will be very much appreciated :)
Best wishes
Nikita
P.S.: Has anyone tried adapting AMs with HTK 3.4.1? What were your experiences?
