A Novel Entropy-Based Decoding Algorithm for a Generalized High-Order Discrete Hidden Markov Model

The optimal state sequence of a generalized High-Order Hidden Markov Model (HHMM) is tracked from a given observational sequence using the classical Viterbi algorithm. This classical algorithm is based on maximum likelihood criterion. We introduce an entropy-based Viterbi algorithm for tracking the...
