Bayesian robust hidden Markov model
The Bayesian robust hidden Markov model (BRHMM) is a probabilistic model for segmenting sequential multi-variate data. The model explains the data as having been generated by a sequence of hidden states. Each state is a finite mixture of heavy-tailed distributions with with state-specific mixing proportions and shared location/dispersion parameters. All parameters in the model are equipped with conjugate prior distributions and are learnt with a variational Bayesian (vB) inference algorithm similar in spirit to expectation-maximization. The algorithm is robust to outliers and accepts missing values.
This submission includes a test function that generates a set of synthetic data and learns a model from these data. The test function also plots the data segmented according to the model, and the variational lower bound on the log-likelihood of the data after each vB iteration.
