Function Documentation

int segCheckSyn	(	SEG_MODEL_SET *	models,
		SEG_SYNTAX *	synt
	)

Display the contents of syntax for debugging.

Parameters:

[in]	models	Model set (pointer to a variable of struct modelSet)
[in]	synt	Syntax (pointer to a variable of struct syntax)

Returns:

Number of nodes in the syntax

Yoshinori Shiga @ CVSSP, University of Surrey

int segFreeSyntaxMemory	(	SEG_SYNTAX *	synt,
		int	totStates
	)

Free memory allocated to training/recognition syntax.

Parameters:

[in]	synt	Syntax
[in]	totStates	Number of states in the syntax

Return values:

NO_ERROR

Yoshinori Shiga @ CVSSP, University of Surrey

int segMakeRecognitionSyntax	(	SEG_SYNTAX *	synt,
		SEG_MODEL_SET *	models,
		SEG_GRAMMAR *	grammar,
		double	lmff,
		int	recogType
	)

Create recognition syntax.

Parameters:

[in,out]	synt	Syntax to be built
[in]	models	Set of models with model parameters
[in]	grammar	N-gram posterior probability table
[in]	lmff	Scale factor for the language model
[in]	recogType	Type of testing (RECOGNITION or CLASSIFICATION)

Return values:

	RTN_ERROR	Memory allocation error / Inconsistency between models
	otherwise	Number of nodes in the syntax

Author:

Yoshinori Shiga @ CVSSP, University of Surrey

Bug:

When an error occurs, not all memory space allocated previously in this function is freed.

Note:

Functions getGrammarPhoneId(), allocCopyStr() and segFreeSyntaxMemory() are called internally.

int segMakeTrainingSyntax	(	SEG_SYNTAX *	synt,
		int *	eStates,
		SEG_UTT_LIST_ITEM *	utt,
		SEG_MODEL_SET *	models
	)

Create 'forced alignment' syntax (for supervised training and classification).

Parameters:

[in,out]	synt	Syntax to be built
[in,out]	eStates	Number of emitting states
[in]	models	Set of models with model parameters
[in]	utt	Utterance

Return values:

	ERROR_ALLOC	Memory allocation error
	RTN_ERROR	A label in utt cannot be found in models
	otherwise	Number of nodes in the syntax

When an error occurs, not all memory space allocated previously in this function is freed.

Note:

Functions extractCentrePhone() and segFreeSyntaxMemory() are called internally.
