Figure 1. Probabilistic parameters of a hidden Markov model (example) X — states y — possible observations a — state transition probabilities b — output probabilities. In its discrete form, a hidden Markov process can be visualized as a generalization of the urn problem with replacement (where each item from the urn is returned to the original urn before the next step). [7]
A hidden Markov model is a Markov chain for which the state is only partially observable or noisily observable. In other words, observations are related to the state of the system, but they are typically insufficient to precisely determine the state. Several well-known algorithms for hidden Markov models exist.
In an HMM, the state process is not directly observed – it is a 'hidden' (or 'latent') variable – but observations are made of a state‐dependent process (or observation process) that is driven by the underlying state process (and which can thus be regarded as a noisy measurement of the system states of interest). [7]
A profile hidden Markov model (HMM) modelling a multiple sequence alignment. A hidden Markov model (HMM) is a probabilistic model that can assign likelihoods to all possible combinations of gaps, matches, and mismatches, to determine the most likely MSA or set of possible MSAs. HMMs can produce a single highest-scoring output but can also ...
The hierarchical hidden Markov model (HHMM) is a statistical model derived from the hidden Markov model (HMM). In an HHMM, each state is considered to be a self-contained probabilistic model. More precisely, each state of the HHMM is itself an HHMM. HHMMs and HMMs are useful in many fields, including pattern recognition. [1] [2]
A profile HMM modelling a multiple sequence alignment. HMMER is a free and commonly used software package for sequence analysis written by Sean Eddy. [2] Its general usage is to identify homologous protein or nucleotide sequences, and to perform sequence alignments.
The Viterbi algorithm is a dynamic programming algorithm for obtaining the maximum a posteriori probability estimate of the most likely sequence of hidden states—called the Viterbi path—that results in a sequence of observed events. This is done especially in the context of Markov information sources and hidden Markov models (HMM).
