Abstract

In this paper the problems of sequential pattern recognition are considered. As a statistical model of dependence, in the sequences of patterns, the firstorder Markov chain is assumed. Additionally, the assumption about independence between the attributes in the feature vector is made. The pattern recognition algorithms with such assumption are called in the literature “naive Bayes algorithm”. In this paper such approach is made to the pattern recognition algorithm for first-order Markov chain and some results of numerical investigation are presented. The main goal of these investigations was to verify if it is reasonable to make such assumption in the real recognition tasks.
