Abstract

We propose a strategy for semi-supervised learning of Hidden-state Conditional Random Fields (HCRF) for signal classification. It builds on simple procedures for semi-supervised learning of Hidden Markov Models (HMM) and on strategies for learning a HCRF from a trained HMM system. The algorithm learns a generative system based on Hidden Markov models and a discriminative one based on HCRFs where each model is refined by the other in an iterative framework.
