Links Between Markov Models and Multilayer Perceptrons

Hidden Markov models are widely used for automatic speech recognition. They inherently incorporate the sequential character of the speech signal and are statistically trained. However, the a-priori choice of the model topology limits their flexibility. Another drawback of these models is their weak discriminating power. Multilayer perceptrons are now promising tools in the connectionist approac...

Hybrid Connectionist-structural Acoustical Modeling in the Atros

In this paper, we introduce several hybrid connectionist-structural acoustic models for contextindependent phone-like units in the atros recognition system. The structural part of the acoustic models has been modeled with Markov chains, and a multilayer perceptron (or a committee of multilayer perceptrons) is used to estimate the emission probabilities of the Markov chains. We compare the recog...

Adaptive High Order Neural Trees for Pattern Recognition

In this paper, a new classifier, called adaptive high order neural tree (AHNT), is proposed for pattern recognition applications. It is a hierarchical multi-level neural network, in which the nodes are organized into a tree topology. It successively partitions the training set into subsets, assigning each subset to a different child node. Each node can be a first-order or a high order perceptro...

Estimating the Number of Components in a Mixture of Multilayer Perceptrons

BIC criterion is widely used by the neural-network community for model selection tasks, although its convergence properties are not always theoretically established. In this paper we will focus on estimating the number of components in a mixture of multilayer perceptrons and proving the convergence of the BIC criterion in this frame. The penalized marginal-likelihood for mixture models and hidd...

Are Multilayer Perceptrons Adequate for Pattern Recognition and Verification?

This paper discusses the ability of multilayer perceptrons (MLPs) to model the probability distribution of data in typical pattern recognition and verification problems. It is proven that multilayer perceptrons with sigmoidal units and a number of hidden units less or equal than the number of inputs are unable to model patterns distributed in typical clusters, since these networks draw open sep...
