    I have a large group of listeners I want to test for their recognition of
    nonsense English CVC words presented with an interesting masker. Would Sphynx
    work? If yes, what error rate is expected? Any other suggestion?

    Hello Pierre

    Sorry, your task is not quite clear for me. Do you want to recognize noisy
    words with CMUSphinx? Why are you talking about listeners here?

    Please note that decoder doesn't understand what is being said, so be it
    "sensesible" word or "nonsense" word, it doesn't matter.

    What does matter and affect accuracy is the amount of noise that will be
    present , size of vocabulary (number of words) and so on. But since your task
    is not clear, it's hard to predict the error rate. I suggest you to explain in
    a more detailed way what are you trying to do.
