J. Ujwala Rekha, K. Shahu Chatrapati, A Vinaya Babu . A Fast Algorithm for HMM Training using Game Theory for Phoneme Recognition. International Journal of Computer Applications. 118, 11 ( May 2015), 21-25. DOI=10.5120/20789-3432
Hidden Markov Models are widely used for modeling and predicting label sequences in ASR. In this paper, a game-theoretic approach for Hidden Markov Model training that is superior in terms of time-complexity over Baum-Welch algorithm is introduced. Furthermore, accuracy of recognition using proposed algorithm is comparable with that of Baum-Welch algorithm.
