Hidden markov model (HMM) is frequently used for Pinyin-toChinese conversion. But it only captures the dependency with the preceding character. Higher order markov models can brin...
This paper presents a novel approach to the on-line signature verification using local shape Analysis. First, segment the input signature into several segments using HMM (Hidden M...
We propose in this paper a novel approach to the induction of the structure of Hidden Markov Models. The induced model is seen as a lumped process of a Markov chain. It is construc...
We introduce a recurrent architecture having a modular structure and we formulate a training procedure based on the EM algorithm. The resulting model has similarities to hidden Ma...
Discriminative learning techniques for sequential data have proven to be more effective than generative models for named entity recognition, information extraction, and other task...
