WAV FILE TO VEC
Objective: To generate *.vec files.
Basic requirements:
1. Training voices.
2. M Files: step 1-5, HtkFile_generator.m and ~.fig
3.EXE file: convert, Vector_Formatter, HCopy,
HList.
4.config.txt
5. 2 empty folders: mfcc and train.
6. Change matlab working directory to test2.
STEP 1: (Generates the script files Hcopy.scp and HList.scp)
STEP 2: To generate *.mfcc files using
A)Hcopy.exe B)Hcopy.scp C)Config.txt
Step 3: To generate
i)*.shk files( under mfcc/output folder) from *.mfcc ( in /mfcc folder) using
A) HList.exe
B) HList.scp
ii) Script file ‘Out_Vec_Scp1.test’ to be used with ’convert.exe’ in the next step.
Step 4: To generate *.gen file (in mfcc/genoutput folder) from *.shk file
Using, Convert.exe and Script file ‘Out_Vec_Scp1.test’
In this step ‘Out_vec.test’ file is generated which is to be used by the vector_formatter in the next step.
Step 5: To generate *.vec file (in /Train folder) from *.gen file
Using, Vector_formatter.exe and the script file ‘Out_vec.test’

HTK_39dpf.config
Train.scp

HCompV.exe(to create a new version of proto file under hmm0\model folder : 1,2,3 to generate
new version of 1 and vfoors)
HRest.exe

HERest.exe; to generate hmmdefs and macros

Step1: Generate script file Train.scp. (use step1a.m)
Step2: Use HCompV.exe ((to create a new version of proto file under \ hmm0 folder : 1,2,3 to generate
new version of 1 and vfoors). (Use step 2a.m)
status = dos('F:\test2\HCompV -T 1 -C F:\test2\HTK_39dpf.config -S
F:\test2\Train.scp -m -v 0.01 -f 0.01 -M F:\test2\hmm0\
F:\test2\proto_5states_39dim');
Step3: generate hmmdefs using monophones0 and new proto. Also create macros using new proto and
vfloors.
To create hmmdefs : make proto_5states.txt using step3b.m file from new proto then run step4a.m
code.
To create macros : run step3c.m
Xxxxxx….skip…this……Step4: run Hrest.exe using step3a.m
status = dos('F:\test2\HRest -T 1 -C F:\test2\HTK_39dpf.config -S
F:\test2\Train.scp -I F:\test2\phones0.mlf -L F:\test2\Train\ -M
F:\test2\hmm0\ -H F:\test2\hmm0\macros -w 3 -v 0.05 -i 40 -m 1
F:\test2\hmm0\proto_5states_39dim');
Step 5: run sequentially step5a,6a,7a.m( pre requisite:config,train.scp,phones0.mlf,monophones0 and
previous hmmdefs with macros). Outcome new hmmdefs and macor
status = dos('HERest -A -D -T 1 -C HTK_39dpf.config -I phones0.mlf -t 250.0

150.0 1000.0 -S train.scp -H hmm2/macros -H hmm2/hmmdefs -M hmm3
monophones0');
Step6: First copy the content of hmm3 to hmm4
Then to fix the silence models run 7b,7c and 7d sequentially to create HMM model with SP(short Pause)
Step7: Run step8a file to get hmm5 files.
status = dos('HHEd -A -D -T 1 -H hmm4/macros -H hmm4/hmmdefs -M hmm5 sil.hed
monophones1');
Step8: Run step9a and step10a. to gen hmm6 and 7.
status = dos('HERest -A -D -T 1 -C HTK_39dpf.config -I phones1.mlf -t 250.0
150.0 1000.0 -S train.scp -H hmm5/macros -H hmm5/hmmdefs -M hmm6

Making Triphones from monophones
1. Hmm7/hmmdefs Hmm7/macro files (generated at the last step in generating Monophones
model)
2. mlfTolib_generator.exe (Train folder with *.vec and a Train script necessary to generate *.lab)
3. words.mlf ---(collected,not generated)
4. dict---------- ---(collected,not generated)
5. voxforge_lexicon
6. Hvite.exe; to generate aligned.mlf ( dict file(17KB), lab files are needed, also words.mlf are
needed)
7. Mktri.led, to use with HLed.exe
8. HLed.exe
9. Perl scripts; maketrihed, fixfulllist.pl, mkclscript.prl
10. Tree1.hed
11. tree_hed_tail.txt, to be added after tree.hed
12. HHed.exe
13. HERest.exe
14. The M-files step11a-25a.
Step9: First using step11a.m code create the lab files (make sure that the *.vec files are in Train folder)
it will take 2 or three min .The train folder should a subfolder in the working directory
Create aligned.mlf using step12a.m
