Abstract

The parameter estimation of HMM is critical to all its applications. The classic B-W algorithm is not flexible with the initial parameters and is easy to fall into the local optimal solution. Bayes estimation of it makes posterior risk minimization, and make full use of the experience, history information and other information other than samples, is useful in many cases. Employs the great computational power of MCMC, the MCMC estimation of HMM parameter can be more effective.
