Dumping bigram & trigram LM after lo...

    Obviously, since the first two search passes are a bigram and trigram search,
    if you give Pocketsphinx an FSG or JSFG grammar, it must immediately generate
    the appropriate bigram and trigram language models. Is there any way to have
    it dump those to console or file immediately after generating them?

    Thanks.

    Are you sure it's true? I don't think so if you are talking about
    pocketsphinx. Both are using trigram scores but fwdtree uses approximate
    single lextree search so that only one trigram history per state survives.

    you give Pocketsphinx an FSG or JSFG grammar, it must immediately generate
    the appropriate bigram and trigram language models.

    FSG search is separate, it uses FSG as a search space it doesn't convert it to
    n-gram.

    Sometimes, it's hard to be sure of anything in Sphinx ;)

    But I'm going by the Hieroglyphs and the architecture diagrams in David
    Huggins Daines "An Architecture for Scalable, Universal Speech Recognition",
    which I find to be the most comprehensible piece of Sphinx documentation.

    And I'm not at all sure about the "poor man's trigram" part. I'd settle for a
    bigram. ;)

    I would drop out Hieroglyphs, it's not finished. Instead, I would recommend to
    start with Ravishankar Mosur thesis "Efficient Algorithms for Speech
    Recognition", then go to David's thesis.
