Hi, I have a new set of LTS rules (based on some new phones and words containing the new phone). They work correctly for some test words used. I now want to be able to use lts_predict without going into the festival command line. I figure using SIOD (its binary), with the necessary commands in a file, invoked in binary mode might help. Here is the list of commands, on the festival prompt, to get the CART tree to guess the phonetic composition of a word not in the lexicon:
festival> (require 'lts) festival> (load "<absolute path to new lts rules>") festival> (lts_predict "bhabhi" cmu_lts_rules) I want to get the same functionality without invoking festival (batch mode or otherwise). The commands.scm I wrote looks like: (format t "Getting into the LTS predict function\n") (require "/home/sriram/tts_festival/festival/lib/lts.scm") (load "/home/sriram/tts_festival/festival/lib/dicts/cmu/cmu_lts_rules.scm") (lts_predict "bhabhi" cmu_lts_rules) SIOD is invoked like so: ~/tts_festival/speech_tools/main/siod -b commands.scm The error obtained: Getting into the LTS predict function SIOD ERROR: unbound variable : require closing a file left open: cmu_us_kal_diphone/scheme/commands.scm My questions: 1. Is this way of using SIOD to call functions without invoking Festival possible? 2. If so, where am I going wrong and what do I do to correct it? P.S: The above commands can be executed by using Festival in batch mode, but it takes a little longer. I am trying to figure out if it is possible to use SIOD to shorten the time. Regards, Sriram Shankar
