HMMs and Coupled HMMs for Multi-channel EEG Classification
نویسندگان
چکیده
A variety of Coupled HMMs (CHMMs) have recently been proposed as extensions of HMM to better characterize multiple interdependent sequences. This paper introduces a novel distance coupled HMM. It then compares the performance of several HMM and CHMM models for a multi-channel EEG classification problem. The results show that, of all approaches examined, the multivariate HMM that has low computational complexity surprisingly outperforms all other models.

Semi-Supervised Sequence Classification with HMMs
Using unlabeled data to help supervised learning has become an increasingly attractive methodology and proven to be effective in many applications. This paper applies semi-supervised classification algorithms, based on hidden Markov models (HMMs), to classify sequences. For model-based classification, semisupervised learning amounts to using both labeled and unlabeled data to train model parame...
متن کاملMulti - Space Probability Distribution HMM ∗ ∗
This paper proposes a new kind of hidden Markov model (HMM) based on multi-space probability distribution, and derives a parameter estimation algorithm for the extended HMM. HMMs are widely used statistical models for characterizing sequences of speech spectra, and have been successfully applied to speech recognition systems. HMMs are categorized into discrete HMMs and continuous HMMs, which ca...
متن کاملEntropy coded vector quantization with hidden Markov models
We propose a new vector quantization approach, which consists of Hidden Markov Models(HMMs) and entropy coding scheme. The entropy coding system is determined depending on the speech status modeled by HMMs, so the proposing approach can adaptively allocate suitable numbers of bits to the codewords. This approach realizes about 0.3[dB] coding gain in cepstrum distance(8 states HMMs). In other wo...
متن کاملLoosely coupled HMMs for ASR
Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) have been successful for modelling the dynamics of carefully dictated speech, but their performance degrades severely when used to model conversational speech. This paper presents a preliminary feasibility study of an alternative class of models: loosely coupled HMMs. Since speech is produced by a system of loosely coupled articulators, stochastic models explicitly r...
متن کاملHidden Markov Models and their Applications in Biological Sequence Analysis
Hidden Markov models (HMMs) have been extensively used in biological sequence analysis. In this paper, we give a tutorial review of HMMs and their applications in a variety of problems in molecular biology. We especially focus on three types of HMMs: the profile-HMMs, pair-HMMs, and context-sensitive HMMs. We show how these HMMs can be used to solve various sequence analysis problems, such as p...
