/* srch.h
 * HISTORY
 * $Log$
 * Revision 1.1  2006/04/05  20:27:30  dhdfu
 * A Great Reorganzation of header files and executables
 * 
 * Revision 1.2  2006/02/23 15:26:10  arthchan2003
 * Merged from SPHINX3_5_2_RCI_IRII:
 *
 * Summary of changes. Detail could be seen in the comments from the
 * branches.
 *
 *  After 6 months, we have two more searches using interface
 * provided by srch.c. That included an adapted version of Sphinx 2's FSG
 * search.  Also, the original version of flat-lexicon decoding search.
 *
 * Second stage search operation is still not properly put in the srch_t
 * structure.  We should create function hooks that allow developer to
 * put the code more properly than now.
 *
 * The interface of srch.c is still not very completed. Things we should
 * support include switching of AM and MLLR.  They are currently
 * commented.
 *
 * Mode 5, the word-dependent tree copies are now fended off from the
 * users.
 *
 * Mode 2, the FSG search are opened.  It is not very well tested so the
 * user will be warned about its nature.
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.15  2006/01/16 20:01:20  arthchan2003
 * Added Commented code in srch.[ch] for second-stage rescoring. Not used for now.
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.14  2005/11/17 06:36:36  arthchan2003
 * There are several important changes. 1, acoustic score scale has changed back to put it the search structure.  This fixed a bug introduced pre-2005 code branching where only the scaling factor of the last frame. 2, Added a fmt argument of matchseg_write , implemented segmentation output for s2 and ctm file format. matchseg_write also now shared across the flat and tree decoder now. 3, Added Rong's read_seg_hyp_line.
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.13  2005/09/25 19:23:55  arthchan2003
 * 1, Added arguments for turning on/off LTS rules. 2, Added arguments for turning on/off composite triphones. 3, Moved dict2pid deallocation back to dict2pid. 4, Tidying up the clean up code.
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.12  2005/09/18 01:44:12  arthchan2003
 * Very boldly, started to support flat lexicon decoding (mode 3) in srch.c.  Add log_hypseg. Mode 3 is implemented as srch-one-frame implementation. Scaling doesn't work at this point.
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.11  2005/09/11 23:07:28  arthchan2003
 * srch.c now support lattice rescoring by rereading the generated lattice in a file. When it is operated, silence cannot be unlinked from the dictionary.  This is a hack and its reflected in the code of dag, kbcore and srch. code
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.10  2005/08/02 21:37:28  arthchan2003
 * 1, Used s3_cd_gmm_compute_sen instead of approx_cd_gmm_compute_sen in mode 2, 4 and 5.  This will suppose to make s3.0 to be able to read SCHMM and use them as well. 2, Change srch_gmm_compute_lv2 to accept a two-dimensional array (no_stream*no_coeff) instead of a one dimensional array (no_coeff).
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.9  2005/07/24 19:35:59  arthchan2003
 * Added GAUDEN_EVAL_WINDOW in srch.h. Assuming this is property of a search.
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.8  2005/07/24 01:39:26  arthchan2003
 * Added srch_on_srch_frame_lv[12] in the search abstraction routine.  This will allow implementation just provide the search for one frame without supplying all function pointer in the standard abstraction.
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.7  2005/07/22 03:41:05  arthchan2003
 * 1, (Incomplete) Add function pointers for flat foward search. Notice implementation is not yet filled in. 2, adding log_hypstr and log_hyp_detailed.  It is sphinx 3.0 version of matchwrite.  Add it to possible code merge.
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.6  2005/07/17 05:54:55  arthchan2003
 * replace vithist_dag_write_header with dag_write_header
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.5  2005/07/13 18:46:39  arthchan2003
 * Re-included srch_fsg.h
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.4  2005/07/07 02:37:39  arthchan2003
 * 1, Changed names of srchmode* functions to srch_mode*, 2, complete srch_mode_index_to_str, 3, Remove srch_rescoring and ask implementation to call these "rescoring functions" themselves.  The reason is rescoring is not as universal as I would think in the general search. I think search implementer should be the one who decide whether rescoring is one part of their search algorithms
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.3  2005/07/04 07:18:49  arthchan2003
 * Disabled support of FSG. Added comments for srch_utt_begin and srch_utt_end.
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.2  2005/07/03 23:04:55  arthchan2003
 * 1, Added srchmode_str_to_index, 2, called the deallocation routine of the search implementation layer in srch_uninit
 *
 * Revision 1.1.4.1  2005/06/28 07:03:01  arthchan2003
 * Added read_fsg operation as one method. Currently, it is still not clear how it should iteract with lm
 *
 * Revision 1.1  2005/06/22 02:24:42  arthchan2003
 * Log. A search interface implementation are checked in. I will call
 * srch_t to be search abstraction or search mechanism from now on.  The
 * major reason of separating with the search implementation routine
 * (srch_*.[ch]) is that search is something that people could come up
 * with thousands of ways to implement.
 *
 * Such a design shows a certain sense of defiance of conventional ways
 * of designing speech recognition. Namely, **always** using generic
 * graph as the grandfather ancester of every search lattice.  This could
 * 1) break a lot of legacy optimization code. 2) could be slow depends
 * on the implementation.
 *
 * The current design only specify the operations that are supposed to be
 * generic in every search (or atomic search operations (ASOs)).
 * Ideally, users only need to implement the interface to make the code
 * work for another search.
 *
 * From this point of view, the current check-in still have some
 * fundamental flaws.  For example, the communication mechanism between
 * different atomic search operations are not clearly defined. Scores are
 * now computed and put into structures of ascr. (ascr has no clear
 * interface to outside world). This is something we need to improve.
 *
 * Revision 1.18  2005/06/16 04:59:10  archan
 * Sphinx3 to s3.generic, a gentle-refactored version of Dave's change in senone scale.
 *
 * Revision 1.17  2005/06/10 03:40:57  archan
 * 1, Fixed doxygen documentation of srch.h, 2, eliminate srch.h C-style functions. 3, Start to fend off the users for using mode 5.  We are ready to merge the code.
 *
 * Revision 1.16  2005/06/10 03:01:50  archan
 * Fixed file_open.
 *
 * Revision 1.15  2005/06/09 21:03:33  archan
 * Update srch.h and srch_debug.c such that include files doesn't depend on explicitly specified directory name.  Rather it would be taken care by -I option in Makefile.am
 *
 * Revision 1.14  2005/05/11 06:10:38  archan
 * Code for lattice and back track pointer table dumping is now wrapped in reg_result_dump.  The function is shared across mode 4 and mode 5.  Possibly later for mode 3 and mode 6 as well.
 *
 * Revision 1.13  2005/05/11 00:18:45  archan
 * Add comments on srch.h and srch_time_switch_tree.h and srch_debug.h on how things work. A very detail comment is added in srch.h to describe how generally srch_t is interacting with other parts of the code.
 *
 * Revision 1.12  2005/05/04 05:15:25  archan
 * reverted the last change, seems to be not working because of compilation issue. Try not to deal with it now.
 *
 * Revision 1.1  2005/05/04 04:46:04  archan
 * Move srch.c and srch.h to search. More and more this type of refactoring will be done in future
 *
 * Revision 1.10  2005/05/03 04:09:09  archan
 * Implemented the heart of word copy search. For every ci-phone, every word end, a tree will be allocated to preserve its pathscore.  This is different from 3.5 or below, only the best score for a particular ci-phone, regardless of the word-ends will be preserved at every frame.  The graph propagation will not collect unused word tree at this point. srch_WST_propagate_wd_lv2 is also as the most stupid in the century.  But well, after all, everything needs a start.  I will then really get the results from the search and see how it looks.
 *
 * Revision 1.9  2005/04/25 19:22:47  archan
 * Refactor out the code of rescoring from lexical tree. Potentially we want to turn off the rescoring if we need.
 *
 * Revision 1.8  2005/04/22 04:22:36  archan
 * Add gmm_wrap, this will share code across op_mode 4 and op_mode 5. Also it also separate active senone selection into a different process.  I hope this is the final step before making the WST search works.  At the current stage, the code of mode-5 looks very much alike mode-4.  This is intended because in Prototype 4, tail sharing will be used to reduce memory.
 *
 * Revision 1.7  2005/04/21 23:50:26  archan
 * Some more refactoring on the how reporting of structures inside kbcore_t is done, it is now 50% nice. Also added class-based LM test case into test-decode.sh.in.  At this moment, everything in search mode 5 is already done.  It is time to test the idea whether the search can really be used.
 *
 * Revision 1.6  2005/04/20 03:42:55  archan
 * srch.c now is the only of the master search driver. When there is any change in the **interaction** of different blocks, srch.c should be changed first.  Then the search implenetation, such as srch_time_switch_tree.c
 *
 * Revision 1.5  2005/03/30 01:22:47  archan
 * Fixed mistakes in last updates. Add
 *
 * 
 * 17-Mar-2005 A. Chan (archan@cs.cmu.edu) at Carnegie Mellon University
 * 1            Started. This replaced utt.c starting from Sphinx 3.6.

    Mechanism/implementation separation

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    Starting from Sphinx 3.6, the implementation of the search has
    conceptually separated into two layers.  The top layer srch.c
    defines the top level atomic function defintion (implemented as
    function pointers) that every search-like operations will share. 

    To understand what it means, consider two seemingly different
    search-like operations, alignment and decoding.  Both of them
    required 1) initialization, 2) propropagte 1 frame. 3) termniation.
    Each of these operation can well be defined as one single
    interface. 

    Some people call this type of implementation as "C-class" which I
    think is very appropiate.  Because in general, C++, Objective-C and
    D actually used the same mechanism to implement the concept
    "class".  Obviously, the actual implementation was hidden in the
    compiler in those cases so that's why so many people are confused. 
   
    Why polymorphism is important?

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    Before sphinx 3.6, maintainers (that includes me) tend to think
    that different operations would require different treatment.  The
    consequence of that is different opertations tends to have
    different implementations, styles.  Code tends to be duplicated if
    programmers think in this way.  One big problem is the fact that we
    had so called s3 slow and s3 fast and there were 3000 lines
    duplication. 

    Code duplication also tends compound. i.e. if code was duplicated
    twice, it will be duplicated four times.  That reduces
    productivitiy of the team. 

    Other reasons why srch.c is written

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    At the time when we implemented this routine, we actually didn't
    know whether mode 5 (word tree copies) will work or not.
    Therefore, letting the code of mode 4 (lucky wheel search) and mode
    5 to coexist will be the best.


    "Embedding" of multi-stage search into the dynamic programming
   
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    Another interesting part (Interesting in the sense that I would
    write a paper on this.) of the search is that we (I will say mainly
    me because this is not new at all.) realize that approximiate
    search (i.e. something like phoneme-lookahead), detail search
    (i.e. something like hard-core tree and fsm search) and high level
    rescoring using knowledge source (e.g. using LM to rescore N-best)
    could all be incorporated into the first pass search and
    potentially make the code more verstille.

    They key concept on how to do this is here: at one frame, one can
    carry out the above three operations and make the search faster
    because of 1) heuristics value obtained in the approximate search
    2) early incorporation of high-level knowledge in the rescoring stage. 

    The naming of function interfaces shows this tendency. lv1 means the
    approximate first-stage search. lv2 means the detail second-stage
    search. rescoring means the use of high-level information in
    rescoring during the search.

    The scope of what srch.c defines

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    Written at 20050510

    At the time I wrote this, we only implement mode 4 (Ravi's
    implementation in Sphinx 3.2, I usually call it "lucky wheel"
    implementation.  (See my description in srch_time_switch_tree.h),
    mode 5 (My implementation using tree copies.)  and mode 1369 (A
    debug mode of the search mechanism where only a prompt will be
    displayed and show that a function is called. Why 1369? coz I am a
    nerd. :-))

    Though only three modes of the search were written. I found it to
    be utmost important to share my imagination of what we can actually
    do using this interface of the search. In theory, the slow search
    (pre-defined as mode 3) and the fast searches (pre-defined as mode
    4 and mode 5) can be incorporated using this interface. s3align and
    s3allphone (pre-defined as mode 0 and 1) in s3.0 family can also be
    implemented in this way. 

    Applications such as keyword spotting and speaker verifcation. They
    are not defined at this point but they are possible using the
    architecture

    What limits this architecture is that it might not be able to
    implement a wide class of segmental models.  I will speculate if a
    recursive formulat can be derived for a particular type of model
    (segmental or non-segmental, HMM or non-HMM).  The current
    interface could be overloaded and allow implementation of them.
    There are definitely some types of segmental model are very hard to
    implement using this structure; e.g. MIT segmental model (pre-1999)
    where segmentation was generated by low-level information first and
    search were performed on segments. 


    A general guide-line on how to write a search implementation

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
   
    1, The batch mode search operation and the on-line mode operation
    can always share code. If the implementation is duplicated, it
    shows a bad omen.

    2, Knowledge source (such as LM and finite state grammer) always
    change the graph structure. That is why srch_{set,add,delete}_lm
    was defined, if we have multiple types of knowledge
    sources. Interfaces should be added in srch.c and the search
    operation (e.g. search/srch_time_switch_tree.c) provides the actualy
    implemenation

    3, GMM computation and search can be easily separated into two
    routines. Therefore, instead of wrap it up in individual searches,
    a new set of function called gmmwrap.c is used which conform the
    interface in srch.c. 
   
    4, Mechanism such as phoneme lookahead and generally fast match are
    all similar in the sense that. They look forward a couple of frames
    and compute a heuristic score. The windows controlling mechanism
    should be coded in srch.c . The actual heuristic should be coded
    somewhere else. 

    5, grh contains the actual data structure that stores the graph. We
    didn't use WFST as a common structure because we found that it has
    certain fact we don't know at the time we implemented.

    6, Always get back to the debug mode (mode 1369) if you want to
    debug the search mechanism

    7, (V. Imp.) When in doubt, ask Arthur Chan. If he is not in CMU
    any more, brainstorm how to get him back.  He is a nice guy and has
    no problem in talking.
