The parameters of a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) are transition and emission probabilities‎. ‎Both can be estimated using the Baum-Welch algorithm‎. ‎The process of discovering the sequence of hidden states‎, ‎given the sequence of observations‎, ‎is performed by the Viterbi algorithm‎. ‎In both Baum-Welch and Viterbi algorithms‎, ‎it is assumed that...

Improving phoneme recognition has attracted the attention of many researchers due to its applications in various fields of speech processing. Recent research achievements show that using deep neural network (DNN) in speech recognition systems significantly improves the performance of these systems. There are two phases in DNN-based phoneme recognition systems including training and testing. Mos...

The Viterbi algorithm is the optimum decoding algorithm for convolutional codes and has often served as a standard technique in digital communication systems for maximum likelihood sequence estimation. With the Viterbi Algorithm, the computational complexity increases exponentially with the constraint length of the convolutional code. Reducing the constraint length (hence the number of states) ...

This paper is a tutorial introduction to the Viterbi Algorithm, this is reinforced by an example use of the Viterbi Algorithm in the area of error correction in communications channels. Some extensions to the basic algorithm are also discussed briefly. Some of the many application areas where the Viterbi Algorithm has been used are considered, including it's use in communications, target tracki...

Viterbi algorithm is widely used in communication systems to efficiently decode the convolutional codes. This algorithm is used in many applications including cellular and satellite communication systems. Moreover, Serializer-deserializers (SERDESs) having critical latency constraint also use viterbi algorithm for hardware implementation. We present the integration of a mixed hardware/software ...
