Simple Markov Chains Memoryless Property Question

I have a sequential data from time T1 to T6. The rows contain the sequence of states for 50 customers. There are only 3 states in my data. For example, it looks like this: T1 T2 T3 T4 T5 T6 Cust1 C B C A A C My transition matrix X looks like this: A B C A 0.3 0.6 0.1 B 0.5 0.2 0.3 C 0.7 0.1 0.2 Now, we see that at time T6 the state is at …

Which predictive model is appropriate?

I'm completely lost when trying to choose the type of predictive model for my problem. Is it autoregressive model, nonlinear time series, Markov Chain or other? Can someone please give me some advise? 78, 18, 51, 89, 19, 43, 62, 28, 94, 49 Suppose, everyday I'm given 10 data, and an example was listed above. They're random numbers generated by two devices, namely Device A and Device B. Each of them is capable to generate random numbers from 0 to …

HMMLearn Predict Next Observed Event

From my understanding you can use the transition matrix to predict the probability of going from the last predicted hidden state(state t), to the t+1 hidden state. My confusion is how in code format do I go from the hidden state predicted at time t+1 to the predicted observed state at time t+1.

Order images in the correct order

This is a captcha where you have to select the side that makes more sense. I am trying to use machine learning trying to break it. My approach is to use Google's vision AI to extract keywords from those images and then use a markov chain and machine learning to predict the correct order. Is there a better approach in your opinion? What are the chances to get it working?

How do scientists come up with the correct Hidden Markov Model parameters and topology to use?

I understand how a Hidden Markov Model is used in genomic sequences, such as finding a gene. But I don't understand how to come up with a particular Markov model. I mean, how many states should the model have? How many possible transitions? Should the model have a loop? How would they know that their model is optimal? Do they imagine, say 10 different models, benchmark those 10 models and publish the best one?

Undestanding Bayesian network with OpenMarkov

I downloaded OpenMarkov software for probabilistic graphical models and tried it on mtcars dataset. The mtcars.csv data looks like this: In OpenMarkov GUI, I went to Tools > Learning and loaded mtcars.csv dataset. I then adjusted preprocessing settings to have Discretize with Equal width intervals for all variables. I then chose Hill Climbing algorithm (default) and Automatic learning options. On learning, the result was as follows: My question is what exactly does this figure represent? Does it represent a Bayesian …

What is the relationship between Markov Random Fields and Conditional Random Fields?

In Neural networks [3.8] : Conditional random fields - Markov network by Hugo Larochelle it seems to me that a Markov Random Field is a special case of a CRF. However, in the Wikipedia article Markov random field it says: One notable variant of a Markov random field is a conditional random field, in which each random variable may also be conditioned upon a set of global observations o. This would mean that CRFs are a special case of MRFs. …
