Översikt

  • In this list, the 2022 slides will be replaced by the 2023 ones after each lecture is given at latest. The titles may be identical, but the contents are improved each year based on feedback. The project works and their schedule changes each year.

      Lecture 7 exercise: Token passing decoder Inlämningsuppgift

      Fill in the last column with final probabilities of the tokens, select the best token and output the corresponding state sequence!

      The goal is to verify that you have the learned the idea of the Token passing decoder. The extremely simplified HMM system is almost the same as in the 2B Viterbi algorithm exercise. The observed "sounds" are just quantified to either "A" or "B" with given probabilities in states S0 and S1.  Now the task is to find the most likely state sequence that can produce the sequence of sounds A, A, B using a simple language model (LM). The toy LM used here is a look-up table that tells probabilities for different state sequences, (0,1), (0,0,1) etc., up to 3-grams.

      Hint: You can either upload an edited source document, a pdf file, a photo of your notes or a text file with numbers. Whatever is easiest for you. To get the activity point the answer does not have to be correct.

      This is 2022, but because the content was quite different (focusing on attention-based encoder-decoder architectures) this maybe worth studying, too.
