    I found that there is trade-off between reliability of acoustic score
    (normalized by number of frames) of a decoded word and the total number of
    words in dictionary. As I go on reducing the number of words in dictionary and
    LM the acoustic scores become more and more reliable to say whether the
    decoded word can be accepted as correct or wrong. I could not understand why
    this happens. Can any one explain ?

    It depends on the decoder. Pocketsphinx for example normalize acoustic score
    each frame by best score.

    My result was using sphinx3.0.6 . What do you mean by best score ? Best score
    of what ? And even if it normalizes, why should it lead to this inverse
    relation between reliability of acoustic scores and size of dic ?
