 4, Down Sampling 
 a, dumb approach,
 b, conditional down sampling (currently can only be used with VQ-based Gaussian Selection

/** 
    approx_con_mgau_frame_eval encapsulates all approximations in the
    Gaussian computation.  This assumes programmers NOT to initialize
    the senone scores at every frame before using this function. This
    modularize this routine but complicated issues such as
    frame-dropping which can also be done in the front-end

    This layer of code controls the optimization performance in Frame
    Leval and GMM Level.

    Frame Level:

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

    We select to compute the scores only if it is not similar to the
    most recently computed frames.  There are multiple ways to
    configures this.

    Naive down-sampling : Skip the computation one every other n-frames

    Conditional down-sampling : Skip the computation only if the
    current frame doesn't belong to the same neighborhood of the same
    frame.  This neighborhood corresponds to the codeword which the
    feature vector found to be the closest.
   
    No matter which down-sampling was used, the following problem will
    appear in the computation.  Active senones of frame which supposed
    to be skipped in computation could be not computed in the most
    recently computed frame.  In those cases, we chose to compute those
    senones completely.

    GMM Level:

    ^^^^^^^^^^

    In the implementation of CI-based GMM selection makes use of the
    fact that in s3.3 , CI models are always placed before all CD
    models. Hence the following logic is implemented:

    if(it is CI senone)
    compute score
    else if (it is CD senone)
    if the ci-phone beam was not set 
    compute score
    else
    if the CD senone's parent has a score within the beam
    compute_score
    else CD senone's parent has a score out of the beam
    back-off using the parent senone score. 

    During s3.5, the idea of bestidx in a GMM has been changed and 
    the above logic becomes

    if(it is CI senone)
    compute score
    else if (it is CD senone)
    if the ci-phone beam was not set 
    compute score
    else
    if the CD senone's parent has a score within the beam
    compute_score
    else CD senone's parent has a score out of the beam
    if the bestindex of the last frame exists
    compute score using the bestidx
    then
    back-off using the parent senone score. 
	  
    About renormalization

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

    Sphinx 3.4 generally renormalize the score using the best
    score. Notice that this introduce extra complication to the
    implementation.  I have separated the logic of computing or not
    computing the scores.  This will clarify the code a bit.
   
    Accounting of senone and gaussian computation

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

    This function assumes approx_cont_mgau_ci_eval was run before it,
    hence at the end the score was added on top of the it.
   
    Design

    ^^^^^^ 

    The whole idea of this function is based on my paper on "4-level
    categorization of GMM computation " which basically describe how
    different techniques of fast GMM computation should interact with
    each others.  The current implementation was there to make the
    code to be as short as possible. I hope that no one will try to make
    the code to be longer than 500 lines. 

    Imperfection
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^

    Imperfections of the code can be easily seen by experts so I want
    to point out before they freak out.  There are synchronization
    mechanism in the bestindex and rec_sen_active. That can easily be a
    source of error.  I didn't do it because somehow when you trust
    just the best matching index of the previous frame is slightly
    different from if you trust the score of the previous frame

    The sen_active, rec_sen_active and senscr should be inside the GMM
    structure rather than just a separate array. I didn't fix it
    because this change will also touch other data structures as well.
