javafst

This is mostly taken from Sphinx with a small amount of clean-up, making it obey Google style checks, etc.

I've needed to extract this code from the Sphinx4 repo a number of times, so I decided to finally give it another home here. I dont plan to make any major modifications, but I might hack on it a little here or there. Please feel free to make contributions.

Automatically generated javadoc here.

You might find JOpenFst to be useful too.

TODO

The original code could be modernized in a number of ways, especially to take advantages of Java8 features. Here is a short list of some of the things that could be done:

• Use null less.
• The mutable/immutable distinction is a little weird.

Need tests, especially for:

• FST output
• Immutable FSTs

For reference you can find the C++ code here.
