I knew that those missing phones didn't exist in "triphones1" file, but this file was generated by HTKToolkit. I think this problem occurs because of the content of "dict" file that consists of list of words like this: "DUA [DUA] d uh ah sp", which is generated by HTKToolkit and already consists of "sp". Can you help me to solve this problem? Thank you very much.

My first question above is about the problem when I executed julius by using 2 gram language model (grammar). But, when I executed julian by using sample.dfa and sample.dict, the cygwin displayed the result as follows:
Stat: adin_file: input speechfile: wav_indonesia/1406-answer-00.wav

U </s>
sentence1: <s> EMPAT SATU </s>
What is the meaning of warning above? How can I fix it? Then..when I ran julian with another wav input file, but the same content with wav file already trained, julius recognized it incorrectly. Does julius/julian only recognize wav input file that has been trained before? Can't julius/julian recognize other files never been trained, but consists of same content with wav files already trained before. I really need your help for my questions both. Thanks.

Amalia Zahra
Hi amza,
>My first question above is about the problem when I executed julius by using 2
>gram language model (grammar).
Sorry, I don't have much experience running Julius in dictation mode - I can't help you on this one.
>What is the meaning of warning above? How can I fix it?
Is there a problem with the audio in "1406-answer-00.wav"? Can you listen to the speech audio in an audio editor? Is there lots of background noise? Was it recorded with a good quality microphone?
Have you looked at the Julius/Julian code to see what might cause the error?
You might try emailing Julius support directly - I've never seen this error before.
>Does julius/julian only recognize wav input file that has been trained before?
No.
If you have created a good triphone acoustic model (using the steps in the Tutorial) Julian should recognize short phrases containing words that were not necessarily included in the training set.
However, when you don't have enough training data, then you might be limited to only the words you trained with.

Hi people,
I have the same problem than you.
Would you mind telling me how do you do to solve it?
Thank you very much.
Hi people,
I have the same problem than amza. (the first error)
Would you mind telling me how yo do to solve it, please?
Did you add the not found triphones at your tieldlist? If I did it, it wolud slove the problem?
I ask you because you had the same problem than me, but nobody answer your question, and some time later you had a different problem. I suppose that you solve the original error yourself.
Thanks.
Hi,
>I have the same problem than amza. (the first error)
You might find your answer by searching the entire HTK users or developers mailing lists. You can download the archives using these links (note: you need to be logged in to HTK to download these ...):
Ken
The problem is that you load the dictionary that the spelling contains sp (short pause). In the other hand, the model tied state triphone you use is not contain sp.
Try to use the dictionary that not contain sp.
I hope this helps you. Because your problem is same.
Hi,
I've a similar problem to Amalia one.
Some triphone are not recognized when I run julius after htk grammar building based on the voxforge tutorial.

As you can see... it cannot fiind some triphone (I know that them are not present, but all files are created with htk like the tutorial).
Can you help me please??
Thanks,
littleJohn
adding information to my problem exposed in precedent post:
file dict (dictionary) used for building hmm net contain 'sp' (automatically added by htk tools); file sample.dic, dictionary used for grammar, NOT contains 'sp' pause..
Can anyone help me to solve this problem??
thank's in advance
best regards
Hi littleJohn,
>As you can see... it cannot fiind some triphone
You probably need more words in your training set - try to add 3 different words for each of the missing triphones.
Were there any errors in your step 10 commands?
It looks like you are trying to create a Spanish recognizer... are you using a Spanish tree.hed script (instead of the English on in Step 10)?
