Ralf’s German speech model 0.1

Ralf's German speech model (license: GPLv3) consists of the following five files: ralfs-german-scenario.xml, hmmdefs.bz2, tiedlist, macros, stats.

If you are a German native speaker, and your voice is similar to my voice (similar dialect, male speaker), you can try the following:

1. Download Ralf’s German scenario, and import it into simon via manage scenarios.
2. Download hmmdefs.bz2, and extract it.
static-model3. Take a look at the picture. Select the option Static model. Then load the path to hmmdefs.
4. Download tiedlist, and set the path to this file.
5. Download macros, and set the path.
6. Download stats, and set the path.

7. I didn’t test whether it works. I will test it later. If it works, you should be able to dictate the words that I am dictating in the Video: Recognize 200 German words. This means that with Ralf's German speech model you should be able to dictate 200 different German words.

8. You don’t need to install HTK. This means that you only need to install simon on your computer.

9. The terminology is as follows:
Ralf’s German speech model = Ralf’s German scenario + Ralf’s German base model
Ralf’s German base model = hmmdefs.bz2 + tiedlist + macros + stats

    I haven’t tried it yet but thanks for all your work!

    Please uploaded your created scenario to kde-files.org in the simon scenarios category.

    This way it will be much more discoverable and also show up in the get scenarios dialog.

    Regards,
    Peter

    I don’t know whether Ralf's German scenario would work with the German simon Voxforge base model. My guess is that they are not compatible.
