A Framework for Mixed Estimation of Hidden Markov Models
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we present a framework for a mixed estimation scheme for hidden Markov models (HMM). A robust estimation scheme is first presented using the minimax method that minimizes a worst case cost for HMMs with bounded uncertainties. Then we present a mixed estimation scheme that minimizes a risk-neutral cost with a constraint on the worst-case cost. Some simulation results are also presented to compare these different estimation schemes in cases of uncertainties in the noise model.

Introducing Busy Customer Portfolio Using Hidden Markov Model
Due to the effective role of Markov models in customer relationship management (CRM), there is a lack of comprehensive literature review which contains all related literatures. In this paper the focus is on academic databases to find all the articles that had been published in 2011 and earlier. One hundred articles were identified and reviewed to find direct relevance for applying Markov models...
متن کاملSpeech enhancement based on hidden Markov model using sparse code shrinkage
This paper presents a new hidden Markov model-based (HMM-based) speech enhancement framework based on the independent component analysis (ICA). We propose analytical procedures for training clean speech and noise models by the Baum re-estimation algorithm and present a Maximum a posterior (MAP) estimator based on Laplace-Gaussian (for clean speech and noise respectively) combination in the HMM ...

متن کاملMixed Hidden Markov Models: An Extension of the Hidden Markov Model to the Longitudinal Data Setting
Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are a useful tool for capturing the behavior of overdispersed, autocorrelated data. These models have been applied to many different problems, including speech recognition, precipitation modeling, and gene finding and profiling. Typically, HMMs are applied to individual stochastic processes; HMMs for simultaneously modeling multiple processes—as in the longitudinal d...
متن کاملSpectral Learning of Hidden Markov Models with Group Persistence
In this paper, we develop a general Method of Moments (MoM) based parameter estimation framework for Switching Hidden Markov Model (SHMM) variants. The main obstacle for deriving a straightforward MoM algorithm for these models is the inherent permutation ambiguity in the parameter estimation, which causes the parameters of individual HMM groups to get mixed. We show that, as long as a global t...
