Abstract (excerpt)

We investigate a novel modeling approach for end-to-end neural network training using hidden Markov models (HMM) where the transition probabilities between hidden states are modeled and learned explicitly. Most contemporary sequence-to-sequence models allow for from-scratch training by summing over all possible label segmentations in a given topology. In our approach there are explicit, learnable probabilities for transitions between segments as opposed to a blank label that implicitly encodes duration statistics. We implement a GPU-based forward-backward algorithm that enables the simultaneou
