Applications range widely from comparative gene prediction to time-series analyses of micro-array data. The parameters of the underlying models need to be adjusted for specific data sets for example the genome of a particular species in order to maximize the prediction accuracy. Computationally efficient algorithms for parameter training are thus key to maximizing the usability of a wide range of bioinformatics applications. Results We introduce two computationally efficient training algorithms one for Viterbi training and one for stochastic expectation maximization EM training which render the memory requirements independent of the sequence length. Unlike the existing algorithms for Viterbi and stochastic EM training which require a two-step procedure our two new algorithms require only one step and scan the input sequence in only one direction. We also implement these two new algorithms and the already published linear-memory algorithm for EM training into the hidden Markov model compiler HMM-CONVERTER and examine their respective practical merits for three small example models. Conclusions Bioinformatics applications employing hidden Markov models can use the two algorithms in order to make Viterbi training and stochastic EM training more computationally efficient. Using these algorithms parameter training can thus be attempted for more complex models and longer training sequences. The two new algorithms have the added advantage of being easier to implement than the corresponding default algorithms for Viterbi training and stochastic EM
