A class that represents a Hidden Markov Model with an arbitrary type of emission distribution.
This HMM class supports training (supervised and unsupervised), prediction of state sequences via the Viterbi algorithm, estimation of state probabilities, generation of random sequences, and calculation of the log-likelihood of a given sequence.
The template parameter, Distribution, specifies the distribution which the emissions follow. The class should implement the following functions:
See the mlpack::distribution::DiscreteDistribution class for an example. One would use the DiscreteDistribution class when the observations are non-negative integers. Other distributions could be Gaussians, a mixture of Gaussians (GMM), or any other probability distribution implementing the four Distribution functions.
Usage of the HMM class generally involves either training an HMM or loading an already-known HMM and taking probability measurements of sequences. Example code for supervised training of a Gaussian HMM (that is, where the emission output distribution is a single Gaussian for each hidden state) is given below.
Once initialized, the HMM can evaluate the probability of a certain sequence (with LogLikelihood()), predict the most likely sequence of hidden states (with Predict()), generate a sequence (with Generate()), or estimate the probabilities of each state for a sequence of observations (with Estimate()).
Distribution | Type of emission distribution for this HMM. |
mlpack::hmm::HMM< Distribution >::HMM | ( | const size_t | states, |
const Distribution | emissions, | ||
const double | tolerance = 1e-5 |
||
) |
Create the Hidden Markov Model with the given number of hidden states and the given default distribution for emissions.
The dimensionality of the observations is taken from the emissions variable, so it is important that the given default emission distribution is set with the correct dimensionality. Alternately, set the dimensionality with Dimensionality(). Optionally, the tolerance for convergence of the Baum-Welch algorithm can be set.
states | Number of states. |
emissions | Default distribution for emissions. |

mlpack::hmm::HMM< Distribution >::HMM | ( | const arma::mat & | transition, |
const std::vector< Distribution > & | emission, | ||
const double | tolerance = 1e-5 |
||
) |
Create the Hidden Markov Model with the given transition matrix and the given emission distributions.
The dimensionality of the observations of the HMM are taken from the given emission distributions. Alternately, the dimensionality can be set with Dimensionality().
The transition matrix should be such that T(i, j) is the probability of transition to state i from state j. The columns of the matrix should sum to 1.
The emission matrix should be such that E(i, j) is the probability of emission i while in state j. The columns of the matrix should sum to 1.
Optionally, the tolerance for convergence of the Baum-Welch algorithm can be set.

void mlpack::hmm::HMM< Distribution >::Train | ( | const std::vector< arma::mat > & | dataSeq | ) |
Train the model using the Baum-Welch algorithm, with only the given unlabeled observations.
Instead of giving a guess transition and emission matrix here, do that in the constructor. Each matrix in the vector of data sequences holds an individual data sequence; each point in each individual data sequence should be a column in the matrix. The number of rows in each matrix should be equal to the dimensionality of the HMM (which is set in the constructor).
It is preferable to use the other overload of Train(), with labeled data. That will produce much better results. However, if labeled data is unavailable, this will work. In addition, it is possible to use Train() with labeled data first, and then continue to train the model using this overload of Train() with unlabeled data.
The tolerance of the Baum-Welch algorithm can be set either in the constructor or with the Tolerance() method. When the change in log-likelihood of the model between iterations is less than the tolerance, the Baum-Welch algorithm terminates.
dataSeq | Vector of observation sequences. |
void mlpack::hmm::HMM< Distribution >::Train | ( | const std::vector< arma::mat > & | dataSeq, |
const std::vector< arma::Col< size_t > > & | stateSeq | ||
) |
Train the model using the given labeled observations; the transition and emission matrices are directly estimated.
Each matrix in the vector of data sequences corresponds to a vector in the vector of state sequences. Each point in each individual data sequence should be a column in the matrix, and its state should be the corresponding element in the state sequence vector. For instance, dataSeq[0].col(3) corresponds to the fourth observation in the first data sequence, and its state is stateSeq[0][3]. The number of rows in each matrix should be equal to the dimensionality of the HMM (which is set in the constructor).
dataSeq | Vector of observation sequences. |
stateSeq | Vector of state sequences, corresponding to each observation. |
