The authors focus on a maximum likelihood estimation for the static model parameters of hidden Markov models (HMMs). They do not consider the cases where the computation of the conditional likelihood density of the observation is very complex. They obtain samples from the conditonal likelihood and use an approximate Bayesian computation of the HMM.
