Relative Density Nets: A New Way to Combine Backpropagation with HMM's

Neural Information Processing Systems

Logistic units in the first hidden layer of a feedforward neural net(cid:173) work compute the relative probability of a data point under two Gaussians. This leads us to consider substituting other density models. We present an architecture for performing discriminative learning of Hidden Markov Models using a network of many small HMM's. Experiments on speech data show it to be superior to the standard method of discriminatively training HMM's.

This unsupervised approach to classification is appealing for two reasons.
