Viterbi algorithm

The Viterbi algorithm is a dynamic programming algorithm that finds the most likely sequence of hidden events that would explain a sequence of observed events. The result of the algorithm is often called the Viterbi path. It is most commonly used with hidden Markov models (HMMs). For example, if a doctor observes a patient's symptoms over several days…
