1. Finding the most likely trajectory
• Given a HMM and a sequence of observables:x1,x2,…,xL
• determine the most likely sequence of states that generated x1,x2,…,xL:
S* = (s*1,s*2,…,s*L)
= argmax p( s1,s2,…,sL| x1,x2,…,xL ) s1,s2,…,sL
= argmax p( s1,s2,…,sL; x1,x2,…,xL)/p(x1,x2,…,xL) s1,s2,…,sL
= argmax p( s1,s2,…,sL; x1,x2,…,xL ) s1,s2,…,sL
= argmax p( s1,s2,…,sL; x1,x2,…,xL ) s1,s2,…,sL= argmax p(s1,s2,…,sL-1; x1,x2,…,xL-1)p(sL|sL-1)p(xL|sL) s1,s2,…,sL
This inspires a recursive formulation of S*. Viterbi’s idea: This can be calculated using dynamic programming.
v(k,t) = max p(s1,..,st= k ; x1,..,xt)
that is, the probability of a most probable path up to time t that ends on state k. By the above derivation:
v(k,t) = max p(s1,..,st-1; x1,..,xt-1)p(st=k|st-1)p(xt|st=k)
= max v(j,t-1)p(st=k|sj)p(xt|st=k) j
= p(xt|st=k) max v(j,t-1)p(st=k|sj) j

Hence, the most likely path that generated CPC is: start A B RThis maximum likelihood path is extracted from the table as follows:• The last state of the path is the one with the highest value in the right-most column• The previous state in the path is the one recorded as Parent of the last• Keep following the Parents trail backwards until you arrive at start
2. Calculating the probability of a sequence of observations
• Given a HMM and a sequence of observations:x1,x2,…,xL
• determine p(x1,x2,…,xL):
p(x1,x2,…,xL)
= p( s1,s2,…,sL; x1,x2,…,xL) s1,s2,…,sL
= p(s1,s2,…,sL-1; x1,x2,…,xL-1)p(sL|sL-1)p(xL|sL) s1,s2,…,sL
Let f(k,t) = p(st= k ; x1,..,xt)that is, the probability of x1,..,xt requiring st= k. In other words, the sum of probabilities of all the paths that emit (x1,..,xt) and end in state st=k.
f(k,t) = p(st= k ; x1,..,xt, xt)
= j p(st-1=j; x1,x2,…,xt-1) p(st=k|st-1=j) p(xt|st=k)
= p(xt|st=k) j p(st-1=j; x1,x2,…,xt-1) p(st=k|st-1=j)
= p(xt|st=k) j f(j,t-1) p(st=k|st-1)

3. Calculating the probability of St = k given a sequence of observations
• Given a HMM and a sequence of observations:x1,x2,…,xL
• determine the probability that the state visited at time t was k: p(st=k| x1,x2,…,xL), where 1 <= t <= L
p(st=k| x1,x2,…,xL) = p(x1,x2,…,xL; st=k)/p(x1,x2,…,xL)
Note that p(x1,x2,…,xL) can be found using the forward algorithm. We’ll focus now on determining
p(x1,x2,…,xL; st=k)
p(x1,…,xt,…,xL; st=k)
= p(x1,…,xt; st=k) p(xt+1,…,xL| x1,…,xt ; st=k)
= p(x1,…,xt; st=k) p(xt+1,…,xL| st=k)

Given: Coke/Pepsi HMM, and sequence of observations: CPCFind the probability that the HMM emits xt+1,…,xL given that St=k: p(xt+1,…,xL| st=k)
Backward Algorithm - Example
b x1 = C x2 = P x3 = C
A 0.2813 0.56 1
R 0.2919 0.55 1
B 0.2051 0.66 1
Given: Coke/Pepsi HMM, and sequence of observations: CPCFind the probability that the HMM emits xt+1,…,xL given that St=k: p(xt+1,…,xL| st=k)
We can calculate the probability of CPC being generated by this HMM from the Backward table as follows: p(CPC) = j b(j,1)p(j|start)p(C|j)
= (0.2813+0.6*0.6) + (0.2919*0.1*0.9) + (0.2051*0.3*0.5)= 0.15831
though we can obtain the same probability from the Forward table (as we did in a previous slide).
3. (cont.) Using the Forward and Backward tables to calculate the probability of St = k given a sequence of observations
Example:• Given: Coke/Pepsi HMM, and sequence of observations: CPC• Find the probability that the state visited at time 2 was B, that is p(s2=B| CPC)
In other words, given that the person drank CPC, what’s the probability that Pepsi was on sale during the 2nd week?
Based on the calculations we did on the previous slides:
p(s2=B|CPC) = p(CPC; s2=B)/p(CPC)
= [ p( x1=C, x2=P; s2=B) p(x3=C| x1=C, x2=P ; s2=B) ] / p(x1=C, x2=P, x3=C)
= [ p(x1=C, x2=P; s2=B) p(x3=C| s2=B) ] / p(CPC)
= [ f(B,2) b(B,2) ] / p(CPC)= [0.1845 * 0.66] / 0.15831= 0.7691
here, p(CPC) was calculated by summing up the last column of the Forward table.
so there is a high probability that Pepsi was on sale during week 2, given that the person drank Pepsi that week!
