    Dear All,

    Firstly, I want to map acoustic features to Bottle-neck Features. And then use Bottle-neck Feature to train another DNN. Could you tell me which current script support this scheme?

    Thanks in advance!

      In egs/wsj/s5/run.sh, search for 'bottleneck', there is an example.
      It is not as fast as it could be (if using GPUs), it would be better
      to update that script to use the online preconditioning, changing
      train_tanh_bottleneck.sh to train_tanh_bottleneck_fast.sh as in
      train_tanh.sh -> train_tanh_fast.sh.

    Hello,

    I'm trying to figure out how to use the Bottleneck features...
    Why do we need the align_dir for the bottleneck training?
    what is the input of the trained ANN? It looks like the input is the acoustic features, am i right? is there a way to use the raw data + acoustic features as input?

    Is there an example script to how to use BN for GMM-HMM training and decoding?

    Thank you very much
    Tamir

      Any supervised method needs the supervision labels, and align_dir provides that.

      and what is the input of the trained ANN? I guess it should be the raw data,
      or raw data + PLP (according to literature), but It looks like the train is
      with the plp features

      Likely the input is the PLP or MFCC features or the log mel filterbank
      energies- these are the standard approaches. A few people have
      published experiments with using the raw signal but no-one has shown
      that this is better than processed features such as PLP.
