The Lab’s web site has been re-organized with Hugo with refreshed English page. Goodbye WordPress!

Julius has merged a pull request that adds a new feature “grammar search on the 1st pass”. To use it, get the latest code on master branch.

It enables applying full grammar on the 1-pass, thus outputs more reliable (grammar-constrained) result at the 1st pass.

Background The grammar-based recognition on Julius does not apply the full grammar on the 1st pass, but applies only the word-pair constraint extracted from the grammar for efficiency. The errors on the 1st pass caused by the loose constraint will be recovered on the final pass, so the approximation basically does not impact on the final result.
