NAME: MakeDiff

SYNOPSIS

MakeDiff [options] Group DiffGroup Net

DESCRIPTION

Creates a new group 'DiffGroup' with the same number of hidden units as 'Group', and connects them with time-delay and look-ahead connections in such a way that the activities of the new units are an estimate of the first order time derivative of the activities of the old units. The regression analysis is the same as that of the HTK toolkit from Cambridge and the StarLite ASR module at KTH. Higher order derivatives can be computed by running MakeDiff again on the created group.

OPTIONS

-r lag Specifies the order of the regression analysis. 'lag' specifies the maximum forward and backward time-lag of the created connections. The default is 2.
-p plast Set plastictity of created connections. The default plasticity is 0.0, which is different from the normal default 1.0.
