Hidden Markov Models
Tue, March 28, 2014
• Markov decision process (MDP)
– transition probability only depends on (state,action)
in the previous step
• Reinforcement learning
– unknown probability/rewards
• Markov models
• Hidden Markov models2
The “Markov”s we have learned so far
Markov Models
3
• A Markov model is a chain-structured BN– Conditional probabilities are the same (stationarity)– Value of X at a given time is called the state– As a BN:
– Parameters: called transition probabilities
p(X1) p(X|X-1)
• p(X=sun)=p(X=sun|X-1=sun)p(X=sun)+
p(X=sun|X-1=rain)p(X=rain)
• p(X=rain)=p(X=rain|X-1=sun)p(X=sun)+
p(X=rain|X-1=rain)p(X=rain)4
Computing the stationary distribution
Hidden Markov Models

• Hidden Markov models (HMMs)– Underlying Markov chain over state X– Effects (observations) at each time step– As a Bayes’ net:
Example
6
• An HMM is defined by:– Initial distribution: p(X1)
– Transitions: p(X|X-1)
– Emissions: p(E|X)
Rt-1 p(Rt)
t 0.7f 0.3
Rt p(Ut)
t 0.9f 0.2
Filtering / Monitoring
7
• Filtering, or monitoring, is the task of tracking the distribution B(X) (the belief state) over time
• B(Xt) = p(Xt|e1:t)
• We start with B(X) in an initial setting, usually uniform
• As time passes, or we get observations, we update B(X)
Example: Robot Localization

Sensor model: never more than 1 mistakeMotion model: may not execute action with small prob.

• You have been stuck in the lab for three days (!)• On those days, your labmate was dry, wet, wet,
respectively• What is the probability that it is now raining outside?
• p(X3 = r | E1 = d, E2 = w, E3 = w)
p(w|s) = .1
p(w|c)
= .3 p(w|
r) = .8
Filtering
• Computationally efficient approach: first compute
p(X1 = i, E1 = d) for all states i
• p(Xt, e1:t) = p(et | Xt)Σxt-1 p(xt-1, e1:t-1) p(Xt | xt-1)

• Formal algorithm for filtering
– Elapse of time
• compute p(Xt+1|Xt,e1:t) from p(Xt|e1:t)
– Observe
• compute p(Xt+1|e1:t+1) from p(Xt+1|e1:t)
– Renormalization

Elapse of Time

• Assume we have current belief p(Xt-1|evidence to t-1)
B(Xt-1)=p(Xt-1|e1:t-1)
• Then, after one time step passes:
p(Xt|e1:t-1)=Σxt-1p(Xt|xt-1)p(Xt-1|e1:t-1)
• Or, compactly
B’(Xt)=Σxt-1p(Xt|xt-1)B(xt-1)
• With the “B” notation, be careful about – what time step t the belief is about, – what evidence it includes
Observe and renormalization
14
• Assume we have current belief p(Xt| previous
evidence):
B’(Xt)=p(Xt|e1:t-1)
• Then:
p(Xt|e1:t)∝p(et|Xt)p(Xt|e1:t-1)
• Or:
B(Xt) ∝p(et|Xt)B’(Xt)
• Basic idea: beliefs reweighted by likelihood of
evidence
• Need to renormalize B(Xt)
Recap: The Forward Algorithm
15
• We are given evidence at each time and want to know
• We can derive the following updates

We can normalize as we go if we want
to have p(x|e) at each time step, or
just once at the end…

• Each time step, we start with p(Xt-1 | previous evidence):
• Elapse of time
B’(Xt)=Σxt-1p(Xt|xt-1)B(xt-1)
• ObserveB(Xt) ∝p(et|Xt)B’(Xt)
• Renormalize B(Xt)
• Problem: space is |X| and time is |X|2 per time step
– what if the state is continuous?
• Real-world robot localization

Sampling
Approximate Inference
21
• Sampling is a hot topic in machine learning, and it’s really simple
• Basic idea:– Draw N samples from a sampling distribution S– Compute an approximate posterior probability– Show this converges to the true probability P
• Why sample?– Learning: get samples from a distribution you don’t know– Inference: getting a sample is faster than computing the
right answer (e.g. with variable elimination)

Prior Sampling (w/o evidences)
23
• This process generates samples with probability:
i.e. the BN’s joint probability
• Let the number of samples of an event be
• Then
• I.e., the sampling procedure is consistent
Example
24
• We’ll get a bunch of samples from the BN:+c, -s, +r, +w+c, +s, +r, +w-c, +s, +r, -w+c, -s, +r, +w-c, -s, -r, +w
• If we want to p(W)– We have counts <+w:4, -w:1>– Normalize to get p(W) = <+w:0.8, -w:0.2>– This will get closer to the true distribution with more
samples– Can estimate anything else, too– What about p(C|+w)? p(C|+r,+w)? p(C|-r,-w)?– Fast: can use fewer samples if less time (what’s the
drawback?)
Rejection Sampling
25
• Let’s say we want p(C)– No point keeping all samples around– Just tally counts of C as we go
• Let’s say we want p(C|+s)– Same thing: tally C outcomes, but
ignore (reject) samples which don’t have S=+s
– This is called rejection sampling– It is also consistent for conditional
probabilities (i.e., correct in the limit)
+c, -s, +r, +w+c, +s, +r, +w-c, +s, +r, -w+c, -s, +r, +w-c, -s, -r, +w
Likelihood Weighting
26
• Problem with rejection sampling:– If evidence is unlikely, you reject a lot of samples– You don’t exploit your evidence as you sample – Consider p(B|+a)
• Idea: fix evidence variables and sample the rest
• Problem: sample distribution not consistent!• Solution: weight by probability of evidence given

Ghostbusters HMM

– p(X1) = uniform
– p(X|X’) = usually move clockwise, but sometimes move in a random direction or stay in place
– p(Rij|X) = same sensor model as before: red means close, green means far away.

Example: Passage of Time
30
• As time passes, uncertainty “accumulates”
Transition model: ghosts usually go clockwise
T = 1 T = 2 T= 5
Example: Observation
31
• As we get observations, beliefs get reweighted, uncertainty “decreases”
