Hidden Markov Models for Spatio-Temporal Pattern Recognition and Image Segmentation
نویسنده
چکیده
Time and again hidden Markov models have been demonstrated to be highly effective in one-dimensional pattern recognition and classification problems such as speech recognition. A great deal of attention is now focussed on 2-D and possibly 3-D applications arising from problems encountered in computer vision in domains such as gesture, face, and handwriting recognition. Despite their widespread usage and numerous successful applications, there are few analytical results which can explain their remarkably good performance and guide researchers in selecting topologies and parameters to improve classification performance.

Automated Tumor Segmentation Based on Hidden Markov Classifier using Singular Value Decomposition Feature Extraction in Brain MR images
ntroduction: Diagnosing brain tumor is not always easy for doctors, and existence of an assistant that facilitates the interpretation process is an asset in the clinic. Computer vision techniques are devised to aid the clinic in detecting tumors based on a database of tumor c...
متن کاملDiagnostic tools for evaluating and updating hidden Markov models
In this paper we consider two related problems in hidden Markov models (HMMs). One, how the various parameters of an HMM actually contribute to predictions of state sequences and spatio-temporal pattern recognition. Two, how the HMM parameters (and associated HMM topology) can be updated to improve performance. These issues are examined in the context of four di3erent experimental settings from...
متن کاملImage Segmentation using Gaussian Mixture Model
Abstract: Stochastic models such as mixture models, graphical models, Markov random fields and hidden Markov models have key role in probabilistic data analysis. In this paper, we used Gaussian mixture model to the pixels of an image. The parameters of the model were estimated by EM-algorithm. In addition pixel labeling corresponded to each pixel of true image was made by Bayes rule. In fact,...

متن کاملImproved Classification Using Hidden Markov Averaging from Multiple Observation Sequences
The enormous popularity of Hidden Markov models (HMMs) in spatio-temporal pattern recognition is largely due to the ability to “learn” model parameters from observation sequences through the Baum-Welch and other re-estimation procedures. In this study, HMM parameters are estimated from an ensemble of models trained on individual observation sequences. The proposed methods are shown to provide s...
