    Time-Inhomogeneous Hidden Bernoulli Model

    The time-inhomogeneous hidden Bernoulli model (TI-HBM) is an alternative to hidden Markov models for automatic speech recognition. Unlike HMMs, which use a Markov-dependent process for state transitions, TI-HBM uses a generalized Bernoulli (independent) process. This eliminates dynamic programming for state-level decoding, reducing computational complexity from O(T*S) to O(T) where T is the observation sequence length and S is the number of states. TI-HBM can also model acoustic unit duration using a survival probability parameter. While simpler and faster than HMMs, TI-HBM has comparable performance to HMMs for phoneme recognition tasks.

    Time-inhomogeneous hidden Bernoulli model

    Time-inhomogeneous hidden Bernoulli model (TI-HBM) is an alternative to hidden Markov model


    (HMM) for automatic speech recognition. Contrary to HMM, the state transition process in TI-HBM is not
    a Markov-dependent process, rather it is a generalized Bernoulli (an independent) process. This difference
    leads to elimination of dynamic programming at state-level in TI-HBM decoding process. Thus, the
    computational complexity of TI-HBM for probability evaluation and state estimation is (instead of
    in the HMM case, where and are number of states and observation sequence length
    respectively). The TI-HBM is able to model acoustic-unit duration (e.g. phone/word duration) by using a
    built-in parameter named survival probability. The TI-HBM is simpler and faster than HMM in a phoneme
    recognition task, but its performance is comparable to HMM.
