Description

Make page to point people to when they ask how to get posteriors on alignments. This question really annoys me because it betrays a lack of basic understanding of ASR, but it gets asked so many times on the lists that we need a place in the docs to point people to.

Research direction
Consider creating a new documentation page in the Kaldi 'doc/' directory explaining how to compute posterior probabilities from alignments. Reference existing alignment scripts and possibly include examples. Since this issue is from 2016 and has no activity, check if any recent documentation or PRs have addressed this topic before proceeding.
