HMM is a powerful method to model data in various fields. Estimation of Hidden Markov Model parameters is an NP-Hard problem. We propose a heuristic algorithm called âAntMarkovâ to improve the efficiency of estimating HMM parameters. We compared our method with four algorithms. The comparison was conducted on 5 different simulated datasets with different features. For further evaluation, we analyzed the performance of algorithms on the prediction of protein secondary structures problem. The results demonstrate that our algorithm obtains better results with respect to the results of the other algorithms in terms of time efficiency and the amount of similarity of estimated parameters to the original parameters and log-likelihood.
The source code of our algorithm is available in https://github.com/emdadi/HMMPE.
