Empirical Bayes Estimation in Nonstationary Markov chains
Estimation procedures for nonstationary Markov chains appear to be relatively sparse. This work introduces empirical Bayes estimators for the transition probability matrix of a finite nonstationary Markov chain. The data are assumed to be of a panel study type in which each data set consists of a sequence of observations on N>=2 independent and identically dis...
متن کاملThe variational hierarchical EM algorithm for clustering hidden Markov models
In this paper, we derive a novel algorithm to cluster hidden Markov models (HMMs) according to their probability distributions. We propose a variational hierarchical EM algorithm that i) clusters a given collection of HMMs into groups of HMMs that are similar, in terms of the distributions they represent, and ii) characterizes each group by a “cluster center”, i.e., a novel HMM that is represen...
متن کاملEM algorithms of Gaussian mixture model and hidden Markov model
The HMM (Hidden Markov Model) is a probabilistic model of the joint probability of a collection of random variables with both observations and states. The GMM (Gaussian Mixture Model) is a finite mixture probability distribution model. Although the two models have a close relationship, they are always discussed independently and separately. The EM (Expectation-Maximum) algorithm is a general me...
متن کاملHidden Markov Tree Model for Word Alignment
We propose a novel unsupervised word alignment model based on the Hidden Markov Tree (HMT) model. Our model assumes that the alignment variables have a tree structure which is isomorphic to the target dependency tree and models the distortion probability based on the source dependency tree, thereby incorporating the syntactic structure from both sides of the parallel sentences. In English-Japan...
متن کاملA Geometric Hidden Markov Tree Wavelet Model
In the last few years, it has become apparent that traditional wavelet-based image processing algorithms and models have significant shortcomings in their treatment of edge contours. The standard modeling paradigm exploits the fact that wavelet coefficients representing smooth regions in images tend to have small magnitude, and that the multiscale nature of the wavelet transform implies that th...
