[hts-users:00305] Re: .mmf files for model adaptation


Hi,

Hi. I'm trying to write an MLLR adaptation script for HTS and I was wondering
if I'm right in thinking that the model parameters used in the synthesis
part of the demo training script come from the "re_clustered_all.mmf" file
in 'models/qst001/ver1/cmp'?

Yes.

If so, what's the best way to read from this file (and write to it, if I can adapt the models)?

Please convert mmf file from binary format to text one.
You can do that using HHEd with empty edit script (without -B option).

I can't open it with a
normal text editor, as is the case with the monophone mmf. If this is not
the file I'm looking for, can anybody tell me which one it is? (BTW, I apologise
if this is a stupid question. I don't really know a lot about handling files
in linux or MLLR for that matter).

Any HTS releases (both HTS-1.1.2 and HTS-2.0RC1) do not support MLLR for MSD-HMM.
If you are want to adapt both spectrum and F0 via MLLR, you have to implement it by yourself.
This feature will be included in the next release (not in HTS-2.0).
