TLDR
In this paper, a method of learning a Bayesian model of a traveler moving through an urban environment is presented, which simultaneously learns a unified model of the traveler's current mode of transportation as well as his most likely route, in an unsupervised manner.
Abstract
We present a method of learning a Bayesian model of a traveler moving through an urban environment. This technique is novel in that it simultaneously learns a unified model of the traveler’s current mode of transportation as well as his most likely route, in an unsupervised manner. The model is implemented using particle filters and learned using Expectation-Maximization. The training data is drawn from a GPS sensor stream that was collected by the authors over a period of three months. We demonstrate that by adding more external knowledge about bus routes and bus stops, accuracy is improved.

Group Behavior Recognition for Gesture Analysis

TL;DR: The movements of the human body limbs and center of gravity are analyzed in order to detect and analyze simple actions such as walking and running and a novel framework for online probabilistic plan recognition in cooperative multiagent systems is proposed: the Multiagent Hidden Markov mEmory Model (M-AHMEM), which is a dynamic Bayesian network.

A tutorial on hidden Markov models and selected applications in speech recognition

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an overview of the basic theory of hidden Markov models (HMMs) as originated by L.E. Baum and T. Petrie (1966) and give practical details on methods of implementation of the theory along with a description of selected applications of HMMs to distinct problems in speech recognition.
