摘要: The authors review the use of feedforward neural networks as estimators probability densities in hidden Markov modelling. In this paper, they are mostly concerned with radial basis functions (RBF) networks. They not isomorphism RBF to tied mixture density estimators; additionally note that trained estimate posteriors rather than likelihoods estimated by estimators. show how network training should be modified resolve mismatch. also discuss problems discriminative training, particularly problem dealing unlabelled data and mismatch between model priors. >
