5.3.2 CI Phone Models: Single-Path Silence Training
black fading line

Silence training of phone models is similar to silence training of word models. Both processes use similar parameters and the same transcription database. The only difference is in the language model, which now has an extra level for the phonetic contents of each word. See Section 4.2.4 for more information on the phone level of the language model file.

The details of single-path silence training are explained in Section 5.2.3. Go to the directory:
    $ISIP_TUTORIAL/examples/s05/s05_03_p02/
Run the following command:
    isip_recognize -param params_sil.sof -list $ISIP_TUTORIAL/research/isip/databases/lists/identifiers_train.sof -verbose all
Expected Output
   Command: isip_recognize -param params_sil.sof -verbose brief -list $ISIP_TUTORIAL/research/isip/databases/lists/identifiers_train.sof

As with word models, the next step is multi-path silence training. Continue to the next section to begin.
