Clearly there is something wrong with the monophone model - a triunit gaussian model seems about even with monophone gaussian model - should be better by about 10% WER, I think.
Monophone tests
Trying to track down where the error is coming from:
Standard monophone converged once WER 86.8:

So there are probably two problems,
- one with monophones (more units makes things worse?!),
- and with triunits (adding context does not make things better).
I will dig apart monophones first.

Problems fixed so far
- All previous test were with the bigram model!!! all interesting tests should be rerun.
- Only 1 subunit on each boundary was clustered - a disadvantage against traditional units where the center unit was also clusterd. Now up to two subunits on each boundary are untied and clustered.
- many unused GMs were left in the trainable params - probably didn't affect the accuracy but slowed everything down
- SUB_PHONE_COUNTER_CARD was used where WORDSTATE_COUNTER_CARD should have been used. Any word with more than 15 substates was given 0 probability?! Another reason to redo all the monophone tests.
Problems that show up only in tri-units
- right-context during testing was using the training left-context DT - this was wrong since the vocab changed.
