The Hidden Markov Model (HMM) has been widely used in many applications such as speech recognition. A common challenge for applying the classical HMM is to determine the structure...
We propose a new family of latent variable models called max-margin min-entropy (m3e) models, which define a distribution over the output and the hidden variables conditioned on ...

Hidden Markov models play a critical role in the modelling and problem solving of important AI tasks such as speech recognition and natural language processing. However, the stude...
The hierarchical hidden Markov model (HHMM) is a generalization of the hidden Markov model (HMM) that models sequences with structure at many length/time scales [FST98]. Unfortuna...
This paper introduces a class of statistical mechanisms, called hidden understanding models, for natural language processing. Much of the framework for hidden understanding models...
