Abstract
Negative examples are used along with positive examples to modify a Markov Model resulting in lower error rates in classification tasks as compared with conventionally trained Markov models. The subject system is used for identifying particular traits or characteristics of sequences to permit identification of, for instance, inappropriate web page material, hand signing gestures, audio program material type, authorship of a text, with the system also being useful in speech recognition, as well as seismic, medical, and industrial monitoring.
