摘要: Hidden Markov model (HMM) has been a popular mathematical approach for sequence classification such as speech recognition since 1980s. In this paper, novel two-channel training strategy is proposed discriminative of HMM. For the strategy, separable-distance function that measures difference between pair samples adopted criterion function. The symbol emission matrix an HMM split into two channels: static channel to maintain validity and dynamic modified maximize separable distance. parameters are estimated by iterative application expectation-maximization (EM) operations. As example approach, hierarchical speaker-dependent visual system trained using HMMs. Results experiments on identifying group confusable visemes indicate able increase accuracy average 20% compared with conventional HMMs Baum-Welch estimation.
