Hidden Markov models for spatially structured populations

University of St Andrews
School of Mathematics and Statistics
Hidden Markov models (HMMs) offer a very powerful, flexible, and efficient structure for likelihood computation. They’re a popular tool for problems in statistical ecology since the structure often has an associated, and insightful, ecological interpretation for the system being modelled. Read more
