Do I need to add updated phoneme sequence of words to .dict file while adapting AM using cmusphinx?


I am trying to adapt en-us acoustic model with indian english accent recordings. Since many words are pronounced in different accent, do I need to add the updated phoneme representation of words? Currently I am following this link: https://cmusphinx.github.io/wiki/tutorialadapt/#accumulating-observation-counts and here nothing is mentioned about updating your .dict file.

PS: Should I add new words directly in the dictionary?


Solution

  • There is Indian English model in downloads, you should use it instead. It comes with Indian English dictionary.
