Prove the following property under a Hidden Markov Model.

	\begin{align}
	p(z_{t+1} | x_{t}, z_{t}) = p(z_{t+1} | z_{t} )

Write out an expression for the expected complete log likelihood:
\begin{align}
\mathbb{E}_{q(z_{1:T} |s)} \left[ \log p(z_{1:T}, x_{1:T} | \theta) \right]	
\end{align}
Use the HMM probabilistic model $p(z_{1:T}, x_{1:T} | \theta)$ and the approximate posterior $q(z_{1:T} | s)$ defined above. 

Your answer should be a function of the data $x$, the local sequence parameters $s$ and $r(s)$, as well as the HMM parameters $\pi, A, \phi$.

Using your objective function from 2a above, show that for the M-step optimal update to the Bernoulli parameters $\phi_{kd}$, the optimal update is given by:
\begin{align}
\phi_{kd} = \frac{ \sum_{t=1}^T r_{tk} x_{td} }{ \sum_{t=1}^T r_{tk} }
\end{align}

Provide a short verbal summary of the update for $\phi_{kd}$. How should we interpret the numerator? The denominator?

\subsection*{3a: Problem Statement}
Consider a Markov model with $K=3$ states, and the following initial probability vector and transition probability matrix:
\begin{align}
  \pi &=
  \left[ {\begin{array}{ccc}
   0.25 & 0.50 & 0.25 \\
  \end{array} } \right]
\\
  A &=
  \left[ {\begin{array}{ccc}
   0.97 & 0.01 & 0.02 \\
   0.10 & 0.80 & 0.10 \\
   0.05 & 0.04 & 0.91 \\
  \end{array} } \right]
\end{align}

What is the stationary distribution of the Markov chain?
In other words, if we sample a sequence $z_1, z_2, \ldots z_T$, for large $T \gg 0$, what is the marginal probability $p(z_T)$?
