Download or read book Hidden Markov Models written by João Paulo Coelho and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-08-02 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents, in an integrated form, both the analysis and synthesis of three different types of hidden Markov models. Unlike other books on the subject, it is generic and does not focus on a specific theme, e.g. speech processing. Moreover, it presents the translation of hidden Markov models’ concepts from the domain of formal mathematics into computer codes using MATLAB®. The unique feature of this book is that the theoretical concepts are first presented using an intuition-based approach followed by the description of the fundamental algorithms behind hidden Markov models using MATLAB®. This approach, by means of analysis followed by synthesis, is suitable for those who want to study the subject using a more empirical approach. Key Selling Points: Presents a broad range of concepts related to Hidden Markov Models (HMM), from simple problems to advanced theory Covers the analysis of both continuous and discrete Markov chains Discusses the translation of HMM concepts from the realm of formal mathematics into computer code Offers many examples to supplement mathematical notation when explaining new concepts

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis documents the work done to put hidden Markov models (HMMs), in a form which can be used as a pattern comparison and c1assification tool in isolated word recognition systems. The thesis starts with a general introduction for speech recognition including historical review, fields of current research and the history of implementing hidden Markov models in speech recognition. The mathematical investigation of hidden Markov models has been given, including the solutions to the recognition, training and optimal state sequence problems. Attention has been drawn to the left-to-right HMM as the most suitable model for the purpose of isolated word recognition. The considerations required for using this model in isolated word recognition have been discussed Most of the presented algorithms have been implemented in the "C" language.

This book was released on 2020-01-02 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Computer Science - Miscellaneous, grade: Very good, , course: Masters of Science in Computer Science, language: English, abstract: Speech recognition, a process of changing speech to text, has been one of a research area for the last many decades. Even though there are several techniques of modeling a speech recognizer, yet it is still challenging to find one that overcomes all the limitations. So this thesis examines the possibility of developing Tigrinya language speech recognizer by finding out which sub-word unit is most appropriate in developing efficient large vocabulary, speaker independent, and continuous Tigrinya speech recognition system using hidden Markov models (HMM). The recognizer was developed using Hidden Markov Model, and the Hidden Markov Modeling Toolkit was used to implement it. In the course of developing this system, the speech data is recorded at a sampling rate of 16 KHz and the recorded speech is converted into Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) vectors for further analysis and processing. In this research work, 1000 selected utterances were uttered by 26 selected peoples from different age group and sex constituting of 4643 unique words. Accordingly, the database is set up into two ways the first database comprised of 1000 utterances that are used for training and out of which 100 sentences were taken for testing and evaluation whereas the second database consists of 900 utterances for training and 100 utterances for test and evaluation which is different from the training set. Furthermore, the data is preprocessed in line with the requirements of the HTK toolkit and both the text and speech corpuses were prepared in consultation with the domain experts.
Download or read book Markov Models for Handwriting Recognition written by Thomas Plötz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-02-02 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since their first inception, automatic reading systems have evolved substantially, yet the recognition of handwriting remains an open research problem due to its substantial variation in appearance. With the introduction of Markovian models to the field, a promising modeling and recognition paradigm was established for automatic handwriting recognition. However, no standard procedures for building Markov model-based recognizers have yet been established. This text provides a comprehensive overview of the application of Markov models in the field of handwriting recognition, covering both hidden Markov models and Markov-chain or n-gram models. First, the text introduces the typical architecture of a Markov model-based handwriting recognition system, and familiarizes the reader with the essential theoretical concepts behind Markovian models. Then, the text reviews proposed solutions in the literature for open problems in applying Markov model-based approaches to automatic handwriting recognition.
Download or read book Connectionist Speech Recognition written by Hervé A. Bourlard and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Connectionist Speech Recognition: A Hybrid Approach describes the theory and implementation of a method to incorporate neural network approaches into state of the art continuous speech recognition systems based on hidden Markov models (HMMs) to improve their performance. In this framework, neural networks (and in particular, multilayer perceptrons or MLPs) have been restricted to well-defined subtasks of the whole system, i.e. HMM emission probability estimation and feature extraction. The book describes a successful five-year international collaboration between the authors. The lessons learned form a case study that demonstrates how hybrid systems can be developed to combine neural networks with more traditional statistical approaches. The book illustrates both the advantages and limitations of neural networks in the framework of a statistical systems. Using standard databases and comparison with some conventional approaches, it is shown that MLP probability estimation can improve recognition performance. Other approaches are discussed, though there is no such unequivocal experimental result for these methods. Connectionist Speech Recognition is of use to anyone intending to use neural networks for speech recognition or within the framework provided by an existing successful statistical approach. This includes research and development groups working in the field of speech recognition, both with standard and neural network approaches, as well as other pattern recognition and/or neural network researchers. The book is also suitable as a text for advanced courses on neural networks or speech processing.
