  # train_multilang2.sh is for multi-language training of neural nets.  It
  # takes multiple egs directories which must be created by get_egs2.sh, and the
  # corresponding alignment directories (only needed for training the transition
  # models).
  
  # for the n languages, we share all the hidden layers but there are separate
  # final layers.  On each iteration of training we average the hidden layers
  # across all jobs of all languages, but average the parameters of the final,
  # output layer only within each language.  The script starts from a partially
  # trained model from the first language (language 0 in the directory-numbering
  # scheme).  See egs/rm/s5/local/online/run_nnet2_wsj_joint.sh for example.
  #
  # This script requires you to supply a neural net partially trained for the 1st
  # language, by one of the regular training scripts, to be used as the initial
  # neural net (for use by other languages, we'll discard the last layer); it
  # should not have been subject to "mix-up" (since this script does mix-up), or
  # combination (since it would increase the parameter range to a too-large value
  # which isn't compatible with our normal learning rate schedules).

                  # not a huge deal though, as samples are anyway randomized right at the start.
