Class SimplePerceptronSequenceTrainer

java.lang.Object

opennlp.tools.ml.AbstractTrainer

opennlp.tools.ml.AbstractEventModelSequenceTrainer

opennlp.tools.ml.perceptron.SimplePerceptronSequenceTrainer

All Implemented Interfaces:

EventModelSequenceTrainer

public class SimplePerceptronSequenceTrainer
extends AbstractEventModelSequenceTrainer

Trains models for sequences using the perceptron algorithm. Each outcome is represented as a binary perceptron classifier. This supports standard (integer) weighting as well average weighting. Sequence information is used in a simplified was to that described in: Discriminative Training Methods for Hidden Markov Models: Theory and Experiments with the Perceptron Algorithm. Michael Collins, EMNLP 2002. Specifically only updates are applied to tokens which were incorrectly tagged by a sequence tagger rather than to all feature across the sequence which differ from the training sequence.
