Trying to run an FST which I compiled with an input FSA, but when I do there is no output. As I searched, the only run command in openfst is fstcompose, so what I try to do is compose the fst with the inputs as fsa.
pronoun.fsm.txt
0 1 <s> <s>
1 0 <eps> <eps>
0 2 </s> </s>
2 0 <eps> <eps>
0 3 <unk> <unk>
3 0 <eps> <eps>
0 4 a a
4 5 l l
5 6 l l
6 0 +PRN #
0
symbols.txt
<eps> 0
<s> 1
</s> 2
<unk> 3
a 4
l 5
+PRN 6
# 7
test.fsm.txt
0 1 a
1 2 l
2 3 l
3 4 +PRN
4
So I created pronoun.fsm.txt as FST
fstcompile --isymbols=symbols.txt --osymbols=symbols.txt pronoun.fsm.txt>pronoun.fst
Then, I created my inputs as an acceptor
fstcompile --isymbols=symbols.txt --acceptor=true test.fsm.txt>test.fst
Lastly, I composed both fsts, but the output is nothing.
fstcompose pronoun.fst test.fst|fstprint --isymbols=symbols.txt --osymbols=symbols.txt
Here is the deal, I want to run a string input to a transducer I created with fstcompose command. But the output is blank.
I found the problem. I want to answer this question instead of deleting it because OpenFST has really insufficient documentation and this question answers how to run FST on OpenFST. The problem is on fstcompose you have to give your inputs as the first argument. So the solution is
fstcompose test.fst pronoun.fst |fstprint --isymbols=symbols.txt --osymbols=symbols.txt
