the geometric distribution of states duration is one of the main performance limiting assumptions of hidden markov modeling of speech signals. stochastic segment models, generally, and segmental hmm, specifically, overcome this deficiency partly at the cost of more complexity in both training and recognition phases. in this paper, a new duration modeling approach is presented. the main idea of ...

The air transport industry is seeking to manage risks in air travels. Its main objective is to detect abnormal behaviors in various flight conditions. The current methods have some limitations and are based on studying the risks and measuring the effective parameters. These parameters do not remove the dependency of a flight process on the time and human decisions. In this paper, we used an HMM...

We study the entropy rate of a hidden Markov process, defined by observing the output of a symmetric channel whose input is a first order Markov process. Although this definition is very simple, obtaining the exact amount of entropy rate in calculation is an open problem. We introduce some probability matrices based on Markov chain's and channel's parameters. Then, we try to obtain an estimate ...

Hidden Markov Model Regression (HMMR) is an extension of the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) to regression analysis. We assume that the parameters of the regression model are determined by the outcome of a nite-state Markov chain and that the error terms are conditionally independent normally distributed with mean zero and state dependent variance. The theory of HMM regression is quite new, but some ...

We present HMM attacks, a new type of cryptanalysis based on modeling randomized side channel countermeasures as Hidden Markov Models (HMM’s). We also introduce Input Driven Hidden Markov Models (IDHMM’s), a generalization of HMM’s that provides a powerful and unified cryptanalytic framework for analyzing countermeasures whose operational behavior can be modeled by a probabilistic finite state ...

Diagnosing data or object detection in medical images is one of the important parts image segmentation especially those which less effective to identify MRI such as low-grade tumors cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) leaks brain. The aim study address problems associated with detecting tumor and CSF brain difficult magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) another problem also relates efficiency execution time...
