Re: [Kaldi-users] TIMIT recipe

[Mailing l. u. f. U. C. a. U. <kal...@li...>]

The people who run TIMIT experiments are quite often people who don't
have much knowledge about speech recognition techniques and they want
to run some experiments anyway.  I advise to avoid TIMIT.  BTW, there
is a paper from IBM (with Tara Sainath?) that applies state-of-the-art
methods to TIMIT, that may be a more relevant baseline.
