update English dic to latest from pocketsphinx

[Coeur]

Hello,

Current LanguageModelGeneratorLookupList.text from AcousticModelEnglish.bundle seems outdated as it still has the test word a42128 added long time ago by CMU. This test word was removed by pocketsphinx commit 5793370c0f2281ffdf9058bf5a217822aaa81533 on Jan 17, 2015 when replacing cmu07a.dic with cmudict-en-us.dict.

Can we update LanguageModelGeneratorLookupList.text to latest from pocketsphinx?

Hi Coeur,

Sure, that seems like a good request for the next version, I’ll drop it in the tracker.

Note that for compatibility with OpenEars, I had to replace the first space of each line with a tab:

Either with sed:

sed 's/ /'$'\t''/' cmudict-en-us.dict > LanguageModelGeneratorLookupList.text

Or with perl:

perl -pe 's/ /\t/' cmudict-en-us.dict > LanguageModelGeneratorLookupList.text

Actually, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cmusphinx/cmudict/master/cmudict.dict is even newer, but I haven’t tried it yet. And it has additional digits for each phonem: don’t know if it’s good or bad.

This has been updated with today’s version 2.507, thanks for the suggestion.
