Data sharing

• AM/lexicon/LM are shared.
• LM count files are still in transfering.

DNN progress

400 hour DNN training

}

• Tencent baseline is with 700h online data+ 700h 863 data, HLDA+MPE, 88k lexicon
• Our results are with 400 hour AM, 88k LM. ML+bMMI

Tencent test result

AM: 70h training data(2 day, 15 machines, 10 threads)

LM: 88k LM

Test case: general

gmmi-bmmi: 38.7%

dnn-1: 28% 11 frame window, phone-based tree

dnn-2: 34% 9 frame window, state-based tree

GPU & CPU merge

Invesigate the possibility to merge GPU and CPU code. Try to find out an easier way. (1 week)

L-1 sparse initial training

Start to investigating.

Kaldi/HTK merge

• HTK2Kaldi: the tool with Kaldi does not work.
• Kaldi2HTK: done with implementation. Testing?

Embedded progress

• Some large performance (speed) degradation with the embedded platform(1/60).
• Planning for sparse DNN.
• QA LM training, still failed. Mengyuan need more work on this.
