getContext

public java.lang.String[] getContext(int i,
                                     java.lang.String[] toks,
                                     java.lang.String[] tags,
                                     java.lang.String[] preds)

Description copied from interface: ChunkerContextGenerator

Returns the contexts for chunking of the specified index.

Specified by:

getContext in interface ChunkerContextGenerator

Parameters:

i - The index of the token in the specified toks array for which the context should be constructed.

toks - The tokens of the sentence. The toString methods of these objects should return the token text.

tags - The POS tags for the the specified tokens.

preds - The previous decisions made in the taging of this sequence. Only indices less than i will be examined.

Returns:

An array of predictive contexts on which a model basis its decisions.

getContext

public java.lang.String[] getContext(int index,
                                     TokenTag[] sequence,
                                     java.lang.String[] priorDecisions,
                                     java.lang.Object[] additionalContext)

Description copied from interface: BeamSearchContextGenerator

Returns the context for the specified position in the specified sequence (list).

Specified by:

getContext in interface BeamSearchContextGenerator<TokenTag>

Parameters:

index - The index of the sequence.

sequence - The sequence of items over which the beam search is performed.

priorDecisions - The sequence of decisions made prior to the context for which this decision is being made.

additionalContext - Any addition context specific to a class implementing this interface.

Returns:

the context for the specified position in the specified sequence.
