// The class TransitionModel is a repository for the transition probabilities.
// It also handles certain integer mappings.
// The basic model is as follows.  Each phone has a HMM topology defined in
// hmm-topology.h.  Each HMM-state of each of these phones has a number of
// transitions (and final-probs) out of it.  Each HMM-state defined in the
// HmmTopology class has an associated "pdf_class".  This gets replaced with
// an actual pdf-id via the tree.  The transition model associates the
// transition probs with the (phone, HMM-state, pdf-id).  We associate with
// each such triple a transition-state.  Each
// transition-state has a number of associated probabilities to estimate;
// this depends on the number of transitions/final-probs in the topology for
// that (phone, HMM-state).  Each probability has an associated transition-index.
// We associate with each (transition-state, transition-index) a unique transition-id.
// Each individual probability estimated by the transition-model is asociated with a
// transition-id.
//
// List of the various types of quantity referred to here and what they mean:
//           phone:  a phone index (1, 2, 3 ...)
//       HMM-state:  a number (0, 1, 2...) that indexes TopologyEntry (see hmm-topology.h)
//          pdf-id:  a number output by the Compute function of ContextDependency (it
//                   indexes pdf's).  Zero-based.
// transition-state:  the states for which we estimate transition probabilities for transitions
//                    out of them.  In some topologies, will map one-to-one with pdf-ids.
//                    One-based, since it appears on FSTs.
// transition-index:  identifier of a transition (or final-prob) in the HMM.  Indexes the
//                    "transitions" vector in HmmTopology::HmmState.  [if it is out of range,
//                    equal to transitions.size(), it refers to the final-prob.]
//                    Zero-based.
//   transition-id:   identifier of a unique parameter of the TransitionModel.
//                    Associated with a (transition-state, transition-index) pair.
//                    One-based, since it appears on FSTs.
//
// List of the possible mappings TransitionModel can do:
//             (phone, HMM-state, pdf-id) -> transition-state
//   (transition-state, transition-index) -> transition-id
//  Reverse mappings:
//                        transition-id -> transition-state
//                        transition-id -> transition-index
//                     transition-state -> phone
//                     transition-state -> HMM-state
//                     transition-state -> pdf-id
//
// The main things the TransitionModel object can do are:
//    Get initialized (need ContextDependency and HmmTopology objects).
//    Read/write.
//    Update [given a vector of counts indexed by transition-id].
//    Do the various integer mappings mentioned above.
//    Get the probability (or log-probability) associated with a particular transition-id.
