    Hello,
    I would like to know if the term continuos/discrete in the sphinx_train
    configuration is related to the densities or the states transitions matrix
    (i.e. to continuous densities or to continuous states). I googled but it isn't
    clear for me yet.
    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry, there is no reference to "discrete" in sphinxtrain configuration or
    documentation.

    In any case, continuous, semi-continuous or discrete in HMM refers to the
    probability distribution type in each state, not to the transition matrix
    which is always discrete (it just contains probs of jumps between states).
