YLIOPISTO - Signaalinkäsittelyn laitos There is one introductory lecture after which the implementation is carried out in groups of one or two persons.

This course consists of implementing a Finnish word-level digit recognizer with the open-source Cambridge Hidden Markov Model Toolkit (HTK). There will be one introductory lecture after which the work is done independently in groups of 1-2 people. We will get together once more about 3 weeks before the deadline to discuss and find solutions to problems that people have come across.
For the project you will need an account in Birdland, the cs.tut.fi-computer network. You can use the Linux-machines in classrooms TC415 and TC407. To complete the project, go through the steps given in the detailed instructions (to appear on this page later) and return the required items in a report by email in ASCII,RTF or PDF-format to Konsta Koppinen. In addition to returning the report, agree on a short meeting with the lecturer where you demonstrate going through the project work on a computer. The deadline for returning the report is 23.5.2009. The project is graded on a scale of pass/fail.
For completing the project work, you will need to read the first 3 chapters of the HTK Book and some sections from the later chapters as well. In case you have problems with printing some parts of HTK book, you may want to try the postscript version.
