The method which is called the “tandem approach” in speech recognition has been shown to increase performance by using classifier posterior probabilities as observations in a...
Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) are one of the most fundamental and widely used statistical tools for modeling discrete time series. In general, learning HMMs from data is computation...
We consider the problem of computing the likelihood of a gesture from regular, unaided video sequences, without relying on perfect segmentation of the scene. Instead of requiring ...
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...
