Version 1.6.0 This the current release.

Released in June 2007 this is a major new release. In addition to the new features developed in version 1.5, ATK now includes support for speech output synchronised with input to allow "open-mic" operation with barge-in. To enable "out of the box" operation, it includes the Flite speech synthesiser fully integrated.

Version 1.5.0

Version 1.5.0 was developed at CUED during the course of the FP6 Talk Project . This new version of ATK contains a number of new features in addition to a variety of bug fixes. The new features include support for N-best output, multiple coders, higher order differences in feature vectors and HLDA, speaker adaptation transforms, and class-based N-gram language models. It was never officially released outside of the Talk Project.

Version 1.4.1

Known issues

The call to "InitGraf()" in HTKTools/HSLab.c should be "InitGraf(FALSE)".
There are some minor Windows installation bugs in V1.4.1

Before using Debug->Start to execute the ATKLib test programs (TBase, TSource, TCode, TRec), ensure that the Debugging properties are set correctly: the Working Directory should be "Test" and the Command Arguments should be "-C Txxx.cfg" where Txxx is the test program name.

There is a serious bug in the network building code in ARMan. To avoid the consequences of this bug, ensure that any sub-networks are only called once. This has been fixed in version 1.5.0.
If a thread is terminated which has an input buffer then any thread sending data into that buffer will hang. This has been fixed in version 1.5.0.
