For relatively small values of k, the Viterbi algorithm is universally used as it provides maximum likelihood performance and is highly parallelizable.

An approximate confidence measure can be added to each bit by use of the Soft output Viterbi algorithm.

* Longer constraint lengths produce more powerful codes, but the complexity of the Viterbi algorithm increases exponentially with constraint lengths, limiting these more powerful codes to deep space missions where the extra performance is easily worth the increased decoder complexity.

The Viterbi decoder implements a soft-decision algorithm to demodulate digital data from an analog signal corrupted by noise.

* Apply a sequence detector at the receiver, that attempts to estimate the sequence of transmitted symbols using the Viterbi algorithm.

A common approach is to use a variant of the Viterbi algorithm.

** with constraint length less than 10, usually decoded using a Viterbi algorithm ( see Viterbi decoder );

The Viterbi algorithm is a dynamic programming algorithm for finding the most likely sequence of hidden states – called the Viterbi path – that results in a sequence of observed events, especially in the context of Markov information sources and hidden Markov models.

The terms " Viterbi path " and " Viterbi algorithm " are also applied to related dynamic programming algorithms that discover the single most likely explanation for an observation.

For example, in statistical parsing a dynamic programming algorithm can be used to discover the single most likely context-free derivation ( parse ) of a string, which is sometimes called the " Viterbi parse ".

The Viterbi algorithm finds the most likely string of text given the acoustic signal.

A variant of the CYK algorithm finds the Viterbi parse of a sequence for a given SCFG.

The Viterbi algorithm is the optimum algorithm used to decode convolutional codes.

In 1967 he invented the Viterbi algorithm, which he used for decoding convolutionally encoded data.

The Viterbi path can be retrieved by saving back pointers that remember which state was used in the second equation.

Viterbi was born in Bergamo, Italy to Jewish parents and emigrated with them in 1939 to the United States as a refugee.

Viterbi was later a professor of electrical engineering at UCLA and UCSD.

Viterbi was the cofounder of Linkabit Corporation, with Irwin Jacobs in 1968, a small military contractor.

He was also the co-founder of Qualcomm Inc. with Dr. Jacobs in 1985., he is the president of the venture capital company The Viterbi Group.

It was renamed following a $ 52 million donation by Andrew Viterbi.

Previously known as the USC School of Engineering, it was renamed on March 2, 2004, as the Andrew and Erna Viterbi School of Engineering in honor of Qualcomm co-founder Andrew Viterbi and his wife Erna, who had recently donated $ 52 million to the school.

Viterbi decoding was developed by Andrew J. Viterbi and published in the paper " Error Bounds for Convolutional Codes and an Asymptotically Optimum Decoding Algorithm ", IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, Volume IT-13, pages 260-269, in April, 1967.

In 1980, Irwin Jacobs was the co-recipient, with Andrew J. Viterbi, the 1980 American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics ( AIAA ) biannual award.

Unlike Viterbi decoding, sequential decoding is not maximum likelihood but its complexity increases only slightly with constraint length, allowing the use of strong, long-constraint-length codes.

Both Viterbi and sequential decoding algorithms return hard-decisions: the bits that form the most likely codeword.

Iterative Viterbi decoding is an algorithm that spots the subsequence S of an observation O =

The Viterbi algorithm is the most resource-consuming, but it does the maximum likelihood decoding.

The Viterbi algorithm provided the basis for the main decoding strategy of convolutional codes.
