s5: This recipe is based on the WSJ s5 recipe. It works with the
the transcripts (available along with the script in LDC97T19). In addition,
it uses a phonetic lexicon generated using the rules based LDC lexicon.
The recipe follows the Triphone+SGMM+SAT+fMLLR+SGMM+DNN pipeline. It uses data
partitions as specified by LDC in the Callhome corpus description. For Fisher
custom partitions are available (check the run.sh file for the location
of the split file : This can be changed).
