Abstract

When considering applications of HMMs in the field of bioinformatics one gets the impression, that there people strive for influencing as many details of the models as possible by expert knowledge, i.e. specifying them manually in a heuristic way. Despite the almost finished sequencing of the human genome this might currently be the only promising method for a discipline, which still suffers chronically from the lack of data.
