This paper discribes the method associated with modeling of Korean phonemes. Hidden Markov models(HMM's) may be viewed as an effective technique for modeling the inherent nonstationarity of speech signal. We propose a 3-state phoneme model to represent the sequentially changing characteristics of phonemes, i.e., transition-to-stationary-to-transition. Also we clarify that the duration of a phoneme is an important factor to have an effect in recognition accuracy and show that improvement in recognition rate can be obtained by using duration-dependent 3-state hidden Markov models.

Today's state-of the-art speech recognition systems typically use continuous distribution hidden Markov models with the mixtures of Gaussian distributions. To obtain higher recognition accuracy, the hidden Markov models typically require huge number of Gaussian distributions. Such speech recognition systems have problems that they require too much memory to run, and are too slow for large applications. Many approaches are proposed for the design of compact acoustic models. One of those models is subspace distribution clustering hidden Markov model. Subspace distribution clustering hidden Markov model can represent original full-space distributions as some combinations of a small number of subspace distribution codebooks. Therefore, how to make the codebook is an important issue in this approach. In this paper, we report some experimental results on various quantization methods to make more accurate models.

This paper proposes a system which extracts necessary information from call-for-paper (CFP) documents using a hidden Markov model (HMM). Even though a CFP does not follow a strict form, there is, in general, a relatively-fixed sequence of information within most CFPs. Therefore, a hiden Markov model is adopted to analyze CFPs which has an advantage of processing consecutive data. However, when CFPs are intuitively modeled with a hidden Markov model, a problem arises that the boundaries of the information are not recognized accurately. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a two-phrase hidden Markov model. In the first step, the P-HMM (Phrase hidden Markov model) which models a document with phrases recognizes CFP documents locally. Then, the D-HMM (Document hidden Markov model) grasps the overall structure and information flow of the document. The experiments over 400 CFP documents grathered on Web result in 0.49 of F-score. This performance implies 0.15 of F-measure improvement over the HMM which is intuitively modeled.

일반적으로 축구 비디오 데이터는 멀티모달과 멀티레이어 속성을 지닌다. 이러한 데이터를 다루기 적합한 모델은 동적 베이지안 네트워크(Dynamic Bayesian Network: DBN) 형태의 위계적 은닉 마르코프 모델(Hierarchical Hidden Markov Model: HHMM)이다. 이러한 HHMM 중 다중속성의 특징들이 서로 상호작용하는 PHHMM(Product Hierarchical Hidden Markov Model)이 있다. 본 논문에서는 PHHMM 을 축구 경기의 Play/Break 이벤트 검색 및 분석에 적용하였고 바람직한 결과를 얻었다.

A climate change-driven increased hydrological variability has been widely acknowledged over the past decades. In this regards, rainfall simulation techniques are being applied in many countries to consider the increased variability. This study proposed a Homogeneous Hidden Markov Chain(HMM) designed to recognize rather complex patterns of rainfall with discrete hidden states and underlying distribution characteristics via mixture probability density function. The proposed approach was applied to Seoul and Jeonju station to verify model's performance. Statistical moments(e.g. mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis) derived by daily and seasonal rainfall were compared with observation. It was found that the proposed HMM showed better performance in terms of reproducing underlying distribution characteristics. Especially, the HMM was much better than the existing Markov Chain model in reproducing extremes. In this regard, the proposed HMM could be used to evaluate a long-term runoff and design flood as inputs.

The new model proposed in this paper is the hidden Markov mesh model or the 2D HMM with the causality of top-down and left-right direction. With the addition of the causality constraint, two algorithms for the evaluation of a model and the maximum likelihood estimation of model parameters have been developed theoretically which are based on the forward-backward algorithm. It is a more natural extension of the 1D HMM than other 2D models. The proposed method will provide a useful way of modeling highly variable image patterns such as offline cursive characters.

This paper proposes a system to analyze and summarize the video shots of baseball game TV program into fifteen categories. Our System consists of three modules: feature extraction, Hidden Markov Model (HMM) training, and video shot categorization. Video Shots belongs to the same class are not necessarily similar, so we require that the training set is large enough to include video shot with all possible variations to create a robust Hidden Markov Model. In the experiments, we have illustrated that our system can recognize the 15 different shot classes with a success ratio of 84.72%.

Spectrum allocation is a key operation in cognitive radio networks (CRNs), where secondary users (SUs) are usually selfish - to achieve itself utility maximization. In view of this context, much prior lit literature proposed spectrum allocation base on non-cooperative game models. However, the most of them proposed non-cooperative game models based on complete information of CRNs. In practical, primary users (PUs) in a dynamic wireless environment with noise uncertainty, shadowing, and fading is difficult to attain a complete information about them. In this paper, we propose a non-cooperative game joint hidden markov model scheme for spectrum allocation in CRNs. Firstly, we propose a new hidden markov model for SUs to predict the sensing results of competitors. Then, we introduce the proposed hidden markov model into the non-cooperative game. That is, it predicts the sensing results of competitors before the non-cooperative game. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme improves the energy efficiency of networks and utilization of SUs.

The purpose of this study is to specify a probabilistic tracking mechanism for customer luxury purchase implemented by hidden Markov model, Bayesian inference, customer satisfaction and net promoter score. In this paper, we have designed a probabilistic model based on customer's actual data containing purchase or non-purchase states by tracking the SPC chain : customer satisfaction -> customer referral -> purchase/non-purchase. By applying hidden Markov model and Viterbi algorithm to marketing theory, we have developed the statistical model related to probability theories and have found the best purchase pattern scenario from customer's purchase records.

Hidden Markov Model(HMM) has a doubly embedded stochastic process with an underlying stochastic process that can be observed through another set of stochastic processes. This structure of HMM is useful for modeling vector sequence that doesn't look like a stochastic process but has a hidden stochastic process. So, HMM approach has become popular in various areas in last decade. The increasing popularity of HMM is based on two facts : rich mathematical structure and proven accuracy on critical application. In this paper, we applied continuous HMM (CHMM) approach with AR coefficient to detect and predict the chatter of lathe bite and to diagnose the wear of oil Journal bearing using rotor shaft displacement. Our examples show that CHMM approach is very efficient method for machine health monitoring and prediction.
