  • Abstract
    Redundant computations occur when a set of hidden Markov models (HMMs) is evaluated with respect to an observation string. A formal restructuring of the HMM allows the redundancy to be identified and removed. An 𝒪([1-κ]NT) complexity HMM results, with the compression index κ ∈ [0,1) depending upon several factors. Isolated-word recognition experiments illustrate the results
