  • Estimation of Viterbi Path in Bayesian Hidden Markov Models
    Estimation of Viterbi path in Bayesian hidden Markov models Jüri Lember1,∗ Dario Gasbarra2, Alexey Koloydenko3 and Kristi Kuljus1 May 14, 2019 1University of Tartu, Estonia; 2University of Helsinki, Finland; 3Royal Holloway, University of London, UK Abstract The article studies different methods for estimating the Viterbi path in the Bayesian framework. The Viterbi path is an estimate of the underlying state path in hidden Markov models (HMMs), which has a maximum joint posterior probability. Hence it is also called the maximum a posteriori (MAP) path. For an HMM with given parameters, the Viterbi path can be easily found with the Viterbi algorithm. In the Bayesian framework the Viterbi algorithm is not applicable and several iterative methods can be used instead. We introduce a new EM-type algorithm for finding the MAP path and compare it with various other methods for finding the MAP path, including the variational Bayes approach and MCMC methods. Examples with simulated data are used to compare the performance of the methods. The main focus is on non-stochastic iterative methods and our results show that the best of those methods work as well or better than the best MCMC methods. Our results demonstrate that when the primary goal is segmentation, then it is more reasonable to perform segmentation directly by considering the transition and emission parameters as nuisance parameters. Keywords: HMM, Bayes inference, MAP path, Viterbi algorithm, segmentation, EM, variational Bayes, simulated annealing 1 Introduction and preliminaries arXiv:1802.01630v2 [stat.CO] 11 May 2019 Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are widely used in application areas including speech recognition, com- putational linguistics, computational molecular biology, and many more.

Introduction It’s very useful to find the top N most probable figures of hidden variable sequence. There are some important methods in recent years to find such kind of N figures: (1) General Viterbi Algorithm (2) MFP (Max-Flow Propagation), by Nilson and Lauritzen in 1998 (3) N-Best List in HMM, by Nilson and Goldberger in 2001 (4) BMMF (Best Max-Marginal First), by Chen Yanover and Yair Weiss in 2003 In this project my task is to realize part of these algorithms and test the results. 1.1 Project Goal The project goal is to totally understand the basic algorithm ideas and try to realize the most recent three of them (MFP, N-Best List in HMM, BMMF) and test them. 1.2 Sources of Interest Many applications, such as protein folding, vocabulary speech recognition and image analysis, want to find not just the best configuration of the hidden variables (state sequence), but rather the top N.

If two nodes are not linked, than those two variables are independent. The arrows denote causal relationships between nodes that represent features. The probability of A and B is the same as the probability of A times the probability of B conditioned on A: P(a; b) = P(bja)P(a) Simple graphical model 2 The nodes are separated into: • observed nodes: where we can see their values directly • hidden or latent nodes: whose values we hope to infer, and which may not have clear meanings in all cases.

In this survey, we first consider in some detail the mathematical foundations of HMMs, we describe the most important algorithms, and provide useful comparisons, pointing out advantages and drawbacks. We then consider the major bioinformatics applications, such as alignment, labeling, and profiling of sequences, protein structure prediction, and pattern recognition. We finally provide a critical appraisal of the use and perspectives of HMMs in bioinformatics.
