/**
*
*
* This package contains the older version of Stanford NER tagger that uses a
* Conditional Markov Model (a.k.a., Maximum Entropy Markov Model or MEMM)
* designed for Named Entity Recognition, and various suppport code.
* For newer version of the Stanford NER tagger that is based on Conditional
* Random Fields (CRF) models, please see edu.stanford.nlp.ie.crf.CRFClassifier
.
* The original version was written for the CoNLL 2003 Shared Task competition.
* The design was considerably generalized, and many more features added for the
* BioCreative 2003 evaluation. For basic NER tagging, you should use
* CMMClassifier
. (Earlier versions still exist as
* NGramStringClassifier
and BioNGramStringClassifier
.)
* The rest of the code in this directory is various remnants of our
* BioCreative system and various support utilities for NER or CMMClassifier.
