摘要翻译：
Baum-Welsh算法及其导数和变分一直是从观测数据中学习隐马尔可夫模型(HMM)的主要技术。提出了一种基于高阶马尔可夫统计量的非负矩阵分解(NMF)的HMM学习算法，该算法在结构上不同于Baum-Welsh及其相关方法。该算法支持估计HMM的循环状态个数，并迭代非负矩阵分解(NMF)算法来改进学习的HMM参数。并给出了数值算例。

英文摘要：
  The Baum-Welsh algorithm together with its derivatives and variations has been the main technique for learning Hidden Markov Models (HMM) from observational data. We present an HMM learning algorithm based on the non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) of higher order Markovian statistics that is structurally different from the Baum-Welsh and its associated approaches. The described algorithm supports estimation of the number of recurrent states of an HMM and iterates the non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) algorithm to improve the learned HMM parameters. Numerical examples are provided as well.
