Hidden Markov models are a powerful technique to model and classify temporal sequences, such as in speech and gesture recognition. However, defining these models is still an art: ...
We present a directed Markov random field (MRF) model that combines n-gram models, probabilistic context free grammars (PCFGs) and probabilistic latent semantic analysis (PLSA) fo...
