lattice-tool: HTK to PFSG

[james.waterhouse at elf.mcgill.ca]

Andreas,

Thanks for the response to my question about lattice-tool and fsm and pfsg
lattices.

I have another question.... Could you perhaps tell me how the PFSG scores are
calculated from the HTK scores? I thought it was straight forward...

weight = amscale*a + lmscale*l + word_penalty

but when I looked at the PFSG output for a simple example it was obviously not
that simple. I am supposed to look at the code and try and figure things out
but if you can tell me in a line or two what is happening then it would be
greatly apreciated.

Thanks,
James

p.s. here is the simple example and the result...
