Overview of the CMUSphinx toolkit
The CMUSphinx toolkit is a venerable speech recognition toolkit with various tools used to build speech applications. We are currently trying to consolidate it to reduce confusion. To that end, these are the currently maintained components:

The following resources are the main ones for CMUSphinx developers:
