• IOHMMs were derived from HMMs by Bengio to have input-sensitive neural networks at each state.... Two papers, each of mediocre quality, will help make them obvious. The first paper is a journal survey that compares and contrasts HMM/IOHMM frameworks. The second is a nice application and is easier to read, but has a jaded formulation.
