چکیده

A. Definition A hidden Markov model is a tool for representing probability distributions over sequences of observations [1]. In this model, an observation Xt at time t is produced by a stochastic process, but the state Zt of this process cannot be directly observed, i.e. it is hidden [2]. This hidden process is assumed to satisfy the Markov property, where state Zt at time t depends only on the previous state, Zt−1 at time t−1. This is, in fact, called the first-order Markov model. The nthorder Markov model depends on the n previous states. Fig. 1 shows a Bayesian network representing the first-order HMM, where the hidden states are shaded in gray. We should note that even though we talk about “time” to indicate that observations occur at discrete “time steps”, “time” could also refer to locations within a sequence [3]. The joint distribution of a sequence of states and observations for the first-order HMM can be written as,

Introducing Busy Customer Portfolio Using Hidden Markov Model

Due to the effective role of Markov models in customer relationship management (CRM), there is a lack of comprehensive literature review which contains all related literatures. In this paper the focus is on academic databases to find all the articles that had been published in 2011 and earlier. One hundred articles were identified and reviewed to find direct relevance for applying Markov models...

Evaluation of the Hidden Markov Model for Detection of P300 in EEG Signals

Introduction: Evoked potentials arisen by stimulating the brain can be utilized as a communication tool  between humans and machines. Most brain-computer interface (BCI) systems use the P300 component,  which is an evoked potential. In this paper, we evaluate the use of the hidden Markov model (HMM) for  detection of P300.  Materials and Methods: The wavelet transforms, wavelet-enhanced indepen...
