gpdsHMM: A hidden Markov model toolbox in the Matlab environment

Abstract

A Hidden Markov Model (HMM) Toolbox within the Matlab environment is presented. In this toolbox, the conventional techniques for the continuous and discrete HMM are developed for the training as well as for the test phases. The ability to make different groups of components for the vector pattern is provided. Multi-labeling techniques for the discrete HMM is also provided. The toolbox includes procedures suitable for the classical applications based on the HMM, as pattern recognition, speech recognition and DNA sequence analysis.
