Sphinx3 decoding problem

[Santhiya]

Hi

I am new to linux and sphinx, I am using nightly versions of sphinxbase, sphinxtrain and sphinx3

while exxecuting the sphinx3 decoder i get the following error, can anyone direct me towards a solution, is it a problem with installation?
Thank you

Hello Santhiya, is there any special reason why you're trying to use sphinx3? it's quite outdated. Try pocketsphinx instead

[Santhiya]

Yes, I read Sphinx-3 is CMU’s large vocabulary speech recognition system most accurate decoder for the large vocabulary tasks so I used sphinx-3. I am also using pocketsphinx but I don't seem to find the problem here, it could not read the featparam in sphinxbase. Is it a problem with the version? Appreciate your help.

[bic-user]

I read Sphinx-3 is CMU’s large vocabulary speech recognition system most accurate decoder for the large vocabulary tasks so I used sphinx-3

use pocketsphinx and generic models provided with it

Is it a problem with the version?

it is suggested to build both sphinxbase and pocketsphinx from sources

it could not read the featparam in sphinxbase

are you sure you're using proper path?

[Santhiya]

For this command line,

sphinx3_decode -adcin yes -cepdir . -cepext .wav -ctl ./temp/$mp3name/audio.listoffiles -hmm $SPHINX3_MODEL_PATH -lm model/$DICTNAME.lm.DMP -dict model/$DICTNAME.dic -fdict model/noisedict -subvqbeam -pbeam -hyp ./temp/$mp3Name.hyp -hypseg ./temp/$mp3Name.hypseg

I spcified this path to read the feat params in this path for decoding, which i am sure it has the feat params

$SPHINX_MODEL_PATH=>/home/Downloads/tutorial/sphinx3/model/hmm/hub4_cd_continu...8gau_1s_c_d_dd

[Santhiya]

Thank you for your help I extracted the sphinx3 folder to usr/local/share now is working properly it could read the params but i get a new error

sphinx3_decode: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/libs3decoder.so.0: undefined symbol: err_msg

Appreciate your help.
Thank you
