Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) have been the mainstay of the language mod-eling used in modern speech recognition systems. Despite their limitations, variants on HMMs are still the most widely used technique in that domain, and are generally regarded as the most successful. In this chapter we will develop the basic theory of HMMs and touch on their applications. In the next chapter is found some m...

NAPAP 1996 Assessment http://www.nnic.noaa.gov/CENR/NAPAP/NAPAP_96.htm (1 of 7) [6/8/2002 10:56:42 AM]

This research compares the role of initial individual characteristics to that of patterns of resolution in which successive dominance relationships are established during the formation of triads in the domestic hen. Combining weight, prior victory or defeat in the site of encounter, and comb size, we created three levels of asymmetries on characteristics for triads of hens. The effects of these...

The exact results for thermodynamical properties of one-dimensional spin-1 2 isotropic XY model with Dzyaloshinskii-Mo-riya interaction in random lorentzian transverse field are obtained. This permits to discuss some approximate methods of disordered spin systems theory. The approximate scheme of examining the thermodynamics of one-dimensional spin-1 2 XXZ Heisenberg model with Dzyaloshinskii-M...
