Statistical Sequence Processing
Frequency
Every 2 years
Summary
This course discusses advanced methods extensively used for the processing, prediction, and classification of temporal (multi-dimensional and multi-channel) sequences. In this context, it also describes key links between signal processing, linear algebra, statistics and artificial neural networks.
Content
- Introduction: statistical (static and dynamic) pattern recognition, temporal pattern recognition problems
- Basic tools in temporal pattern modeling: Correlation, autocorrelation, linear/nonlinear AR, ARMA and ARCH modeling
- Statistical pattern recognition: Bayes classifiers, artificial neural networks (ANNs), discriminant functions, Expectation-Maximization algorithm, dynamic programming
- Sequence processing: discrete Markov models, hidden Markov models (HMM), autoregressive (AR)-HMM, hybrid HMM/ANN systems, parameter estimation (EM and forward-backward algorithms applied to these models)
- Laboratory exercises: in statistical pattern recognition, autoregressive modeling, Markov models and hidden Markov models
Keywords
Statistical modeling, Markov models, hidden Markov models, artificial neural networks for sequence processing.
