IMAGE SEGMENTATION USING GAUSSIAN MIXTURE MODEL
Stochastic models such as mixture models, graphical models, Markov random fields and hidden Markov models have key role in probabilistic data analysis. In this paper, we have learned Gaussian mixture model to the pixels of an image. The parameters of the model have estimated by EM-algorithm. In addition pixel labeling corresponded to each pixel of true image is made by Bayes rule. In fact, ...

متن کاملExperiments with a Gaussian Merging-Splitting Algorithm for HMM Training for Speech Recognition
It is well known that the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm, commonly used to estimate hidden Markov model (HMM) parameters for speech recognition, is sensitive to the initial model parameter values, making appropriate parameter initialization important. We investigate the use of iterative Gaussian splitting and EM training to initialize the desired number of Gaussians per HMM state (or s...
متن کاملA Gentle Tutorial of the EM Algorithm and its Application to Parameter Estimation for Gaussian Mixture and Hidden Markov Models
We describe the maximum-likelihood parameter estimation problem and how the ExpectationMaximization (EM) algorithm can be used for its solution. We first describe the abstract form of the EM algorithm as it is often given in the literature. We then develop the EM parameter estimation procedure for two applications: 1) finding the parameters of a mixture of Gaussian densities, and 2) finding the...
