Maximum entropy markov models for information extraction and segmentation by andrew mccallum, dayne freitag, fernando pereira, 2000 hidden markov models hmms are a powerful probabilistic tool for modeling sequential data, and have been applied with success to many textrelated tasks, such as partofspeech tagging, text segmentation and information extraction. An memm is a discriminative model that extends a standard maximum entropy classifier by assuming that the unknown values to be learnt are connected in a markov chain rather than being conditionally independent of each other. The chapter deals with hidden markov models, maximum entropy markov models and partsofspeech tagging.

Maximum entropy markov models for semantic role labelling. A runofthehmm pairsan observation sequence witha state sequence. This blog post is an introduction to maximum entropy markov model. Inasupervisedtask,suchasinformationextraction,thereis. In machine learning, a maximumentropy markov model memm, or conditional markov model cmm, is a graphical model for sequence labeling that combines features of hidden markov models hmms and maximum entropy maxent models. Entropy markov model memm, the classifier makes a single decision at a time. Memm stands for maximum entropy markov models, which are a variation on the traditional hidden markov models hmms. The idea of the maximum entropy markov model memm is to make use of both the hmm framework to predict sequence labels given an observation sequence, but incorporating the multinomial logistic regression aka maximum entropy, which gives freedom in the type and number of features one can extract from the observation sequence.
These models attempts to characterize a string of tokens such as words in a sentence, or sound fragments in a speech signal as a most likely set of transitions through a markov model, which is a special finite state machine.
