Data sharing

(1) AM/lexicon/LM are shared.
(2) LM count files are still in transfering.

===Tencent test result===

  AM: 70h training data(2 day, 15 machines, 10 threads)
  LM: 88k LM 
  Test case: general 
  gmmi-bmmi: 38.7%
  dnn-1: 28%  11 frame window,  phone-based tree 
  dnn-2: 34%  9  frame window,  state-based tree
  

===GPU & CPU merge===
 Invesigate the possibility to merge GPU and CPU code. Try to find out an easier way. (1 week)

(4) L-1 sparse initial training. 

Kaldi/HTK merge

(1) HTK2Kaldi: the tool with Kaldi does not work.
(2) Kaldi2HTK: done with implementation. Testing?

Embedded progress

(1) Some large performance (speed) degradation with the embedded platform(1/60).
(2) Planning for sparse DNN.
(3) QA LM training, still failed. Mengyuan need more work on this.
