Correction: At 7:43, the last red term should be P(Y_0 | X_0) At 9:48, in the 2nd equation, it should be P(Y^1|X_i) instead of P(Y^0|X_i) in the 3rd equation, it should be alpha_t(X_i) instead of alpha_t-1(X_i)
Thank's for the video and the correction in this comment. I think there is another mistake in the first equation at 9:48, if I understood the equation and symbols correctly. Namely at the end of equation 1 P( Y^t|X_i), shouldn't it be P( Y^t-1|X_i)? Or am I mistaken? If there is no mistake could you please explain what Y^t means. I'd really appreciate your help.
please pin this comment to the top or add these corrections to the description box. almost couldn't find this correction!! also, (please correct me if i'm wrong), here Y^1 = Y_0, Y^2 = Y_0, and Y^3 = Y^1, right?
@@moetasembellakhalifa3452 from what i understood , a_t(X_i) gives the conditional probability of the t-th term of the sequence X being X_i given that the t-th term of the observed sequence Y, Y^t, is (whatever was observed) in this case Y_1. For example a_2(X_i) gives the probability the second term of the sequence X denoted by X^2 to be X_i given that the second term of Y denoted by Y^2 is (in this case) observed as Y_0. So a_2(X_i)=(prior probability of X^2=X_i) times the probability of observing Y^2=Y_0 given that X^2=X_i. The prior probability of X^2=X_i is the probability of the first term being in either X_0 and(*) transitioning to second term X_i or(+) the first term being X_1 and(*) transitioning to second term X_i, so it is a_1(X_0)*P(X_i|X_0)+a_1(X_1)*P(X_i|X_1). Therefore a_2(X_i) = [ a_1(X_0)*P(X_i|X_0)+a_1(X_1)*P(X_i|X_1) ]*P(Y^2=Y_0|X_i). So the recursive formula becomes a_t(X_i) = sum[ a_(t-1)(X_j) *P(X_i |X_j)]*P(Y^t |X_i).
I've wanted to learn about Markov chains for a really long time and I've finally gotten around to teaching myself. Cannot express how useful these videos are! Thank you!
One of my favorite things when learning a new concept is to go over the basics, then write code myself to re-implement it as a way to find out if I really understood the concepts. Your videos do a great job of explaining the concepts, and provide excellent supporting material for me to double-check my code. While this is a lot of work vs. just using existing code libraries I feel that it leads to a deeper intuitive grasp of the concept after the fact. Anyhow, great job on the video content to help people build an intuitive understanding of this concept!
In this series you have done fantastic job balancing an intuitive understanding of the concepts with the formal mathematics that allow for the concept to be extended further. Thank you so much, these have been incredibly helpful in learning about HMM!
Thanks for this video series. Can you make videos on the backward algorithm, Viterbi algorithm, and Baum-Welch algorithm? It would be really helpful. Thanks again.
Hey @normalized Nard, Could you also make videos about the Backward Algorithm and the difference between these two. Also about Filtering, Probability and Smoothing? That would be very much appreciatable!!
Notes for future revision. Given a HMM, we can find the probability of a specific sequence of observation/emission states. How: Add all the probabilities (joint and conditonal) for each possible hidden state sequence that create the emission sequence. For 3 sequences and 2 hidden states, there are 2³ possible sequences (that generate the emission sequence), and hence 2³ probabilities. No. of probabilitie = N^T, N = no. of hidden states T = length of sequence Each probability = P(HidStateSeq1).P(ObsStateSeq1|HidStateSeq1)* P(HidStateSeq2|HidStateSeq1).P(ObsState2|HidState2)* P(HidStateSeq3|HidStateSeq2).P(ObsState3|HidState3) =P(HidSeq1).P(ObsSeq1 | HidSeq1) *P(HidSeq2 | HidSeq1).P(Obs2 | HidSeq2) *P(HidSeq3 | HidSeq2).P(Obs3 | HidSeq3) *... *P(HidSeqN | HidSeqN-1).P(ObsN | HidSeqN)
Very good explanation, thank you. On a side note, I wish we could use more descriptive notation, like P(R) for the probability of rain. It would make things much clearer.
This series has been super insightful. I really wanna see HMM where the future observed state is related to its previous state as well as the hidden model.
Great tutorial. Thx. but I wonder the following: When you are dividing the problem at 05:42, you divide it to two sequences ending with X0 and X1. Is this specifically selected? Wouldn't it work if we divide the problem to two sequences starting with X0 and X1 (instead of ending)
Elegant proof. It was beautiful. Can we more generalize this algorithm further for higher-order Markov models? , i.e., the current state depends on not only the previous state but also, more previous states. Also, please make videos for the Backward algorithm and Viterbi algorithm.
Hello ! Thanks for your videos, it's very well explained and illustrated, that helps me very much. Please can you do a video about restricted Boltzmann machines ?
I didnt understand why you wanted to add all the multiplications to get the final probability...it should be averaged...or rather the multiplications should be further multiplied by the negation of alternate choices and then added
Correction:
At 7:43,
the last red term should be P(Y_0 | X_0)
At 9:48,
in the 2nd equation, it should be P(Y^1|X_i) instead of P(Y^0|X_i)
in the 3rd equation, it should be alpha_t(X_i) instead of alpha_t-1(X_i)
I think you could put those on the videos (subtitles or something). It is the best explanation I've seen about the topic!
Thank's for the video and the correction in this comment. I think there is another mistake in the first equation at 9:48, if I understood the equation and symbols correctly.

Hats off! So simple and neat.
I've just discovered ur channel it is wonderful your videos are great u deserve so much more views and subscribers ! Cheer up from France ;)
Thank you so much!!
09:47 P(Y1, Y2, Yt) = sum for i=0 to n-1 [ Alpha_t-1 (Xi) ]
Why alpha_t-1? Shouldn't it be alpha_t?
Same question
Thanks for the very useful video on Hidden Markov Model.
Clear and concise explanation. Keep up the good work!
Yeah sure :)

Slight correction 9:59 P(Y1, Y2, Y3...) = ... it is alpha t , not t-1

great video. Born to be teacher
At 6:33, why did alpha3 dissolve only into Y0 and Y0? Why it can't be Y0 and Y1?
Fantastic! Thanks! I like your approach that to understand it, it helps to 'invent' it.
Wow! Excellent explanation! I wish my lecturers knew how to make ML so understandable :D
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks man, you explained it well
Great video keep up the good work

Really nice video! Please do the backward algorithm next.
Noted!
this video is elegant
Could you have also summed up all 8 permutations at 3:57?
Hi, what is Y^t in the last formula is it the same as Y suffix t which is nothing but the observed mood sequences with their index?
7:46 last value is not P(Y0 | X1), It's P(Y0 | X0)
Thank you for the awesome content!
Hi, I wanted to ask if the Forward Algorithm of the Hidden Markov Model can be used in trading charts?
Innovative teaching!
Glad you think so!
Have you posted any video on viterbi algorithm
Bro what tools you use create a video, please tells us 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
At 7:43, shouldn't it be P(Y0,X0) at the far right?
Yes, you are right, he did make a mistake since he wrote the right answer at 10:15.

You were right.
how can we calculate pi when we don't know whether sunny or rainy is taken into consideration?

Please explain the work principles of Apriori algorithm and the preprocessing techniques.

@@NormalizedNerd thank you
Well explained!!!!
Thanks! :)
Thank you for video. I am newbe and i need forward algorithm for 1 project. Is there any computer programme which can do this easier ? :D

@@NormalizedNerd good !
What about the backwards part of the forward-backwards algorithm? aka Beta_t(x_t) computations
But how do you find the best sequence of hidden states ?
9:54 third equation should be alpha t
How we get the transition value
If it's possible , could you pleease activate the subtitle?
Subtitles are (currently) missing on this one D:
05:16 Solve repeated calculations
Pls explain the program
Will you provide subtitle on your video please.thank you.
I guess you can use the closed caption feature on TH-cam. That's quite accurate.
Noted.thanks
