A Markov model where observations are dependent on a latent Markov process XX

an HMM has an additional requirement that the outcome of YY at time t=t0t = t_0 must be “influenced” exclusively by the outcome of XX at t=t0t = t_0 and that the outcomes of XX and YY at t<t0t <t_{0} must be conditionally independent of YY at t=t0t = t_{0} given XX at time t=t0t = t_{0}.
