1. A method comprising:
- receiving Hidden Markov Model (HMM) information from an external system;
processing back pointer data and first HMM state scores for one or more NULL states in the HMM information;
processing second HMM state scores for one or more non-NULL states in the HMM information based on at least one predecessor state; and
transferring the second HMM state scores to the external system.

Abstract
A method, apparatus, and tangible computer readable medium for processing a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) structure are disclosed herein. For example, the method includes receiving Hidden Markov Model (HMM) information from an external system. The method also includes processing back pointer data and first HMM states scores for one or more NULL states in the HMM information. Second HMM state scores are processed for one or more non-NULL states in the HMM information based on at least one predecessor state. Further, the method includes transferring the second HMM state scores to the external system.

9. An apparatus comprising:
-
a state type fetch module configured to determine a presence of one or more NULL and non-NULL states in HMM information; a processing module configured to; process back pointer data and first HMM state scores for the one or more NULL states; and process second HMM state scores for one or more non-NULL states based on at least one predecessor state; and an output list module configured to transfer the second HMM state scores to an external system. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
