Thanks.  We will look into what you have suggested.

We are working on Deep Learning as a Service (DLaaS) targeting light users, and we will let you know once it is ready for testing purposes so that you can provide us feedback as a user.

CTC along with RNNs (LSTM/GRU) is currently state of the art in ASR
enough to say it is the technique used currently by Google
[http://googleresearch.blogspot.com.eg/2015/09/google-voice-search-faster-and-more.html]
and Baidu [http://arxiv.org/abs/1512.02595v1]

The technique also won competitions in handwriting recognition and are
very successful in OCR

I am currently only a user : D and didn't delve enough in the theory
but there are a number of Cpp implementations that should greatly
simplify the job:
1) wrap-ctc released as a fast Cpu/Gpu CTC library from Baidu 4 days
ago [https://github.com/baidu-research/warp-ctc]
2) RNNLIB, the reference CTC implementation by Alex Graves
[http://sourceforge.net/p/rnnl/wiki/Home/]
3) CLSTM, an OCR library based on LSTM+CTC by Thomas Breuel
[https://github.com/tmbdev/clstm]

Subject: Re: New features to be included in v0.3

Hi Mohamed

Yes. Only GRU has been added in v0.2. I think Zhongming (cc'ed) is
implementing LSTM.
It would be interesting to provide an example for acoustic modeling using
CTC.
If you have experience of using CTC for acoustic modelling , it would be
appreciated if you can help to add it in v0.3.

Wei

a CTC layer would greatly simplify acoustic modeling and many other
applications

Subject: New features to be included in v0.3

Hi all,

I have proposed some features for v0.3, which is scheduled to be released
in March 2016.
The major goals include usability and performance improvements.

I have assigned some of the tasks to some developers/committers.
If you are interested in any of them, please join the development by
replying to that ticket.

I will add new tickets continuously.
You are also welcomed to create new tickets for other features about
usability and performance improvements.
Let's get started!

Thanks!

regards,
Wei
