| + | * In unstructured perceptron, you are trying to separate two sets of with hyperplane. See Question 1 for the algorithm. In training phase, you iterate your training data and adjust the hyperplane every time you make a mistake. [[http:// | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Structured (or multiclass) perceptron is generalization of the unstructured perceptron. See figure 1 in the paper for the algorithm. | ||
| + | * You can use any structured input x (not just vector, sentence for example) and any structured output y (not just binary value, parse tree for example) | ||
| + | * You need to have fuction f(x,y) which returns feature representation of candidate input-output pair | ||
| + | * Using the Theorem 1, you can bound the number of mistakes made during the training | ||
| + | * The computational time is therefore also bounded. | ||
| + | * This holds only for linearly separable sets. | ||
| + | * Other remarks and discussed issues | ||
| + | * The perceptron training algorithm does not always return the same weights (unlike maximal margin). It depends on order of training data. | ||
| + | * How the inference is done in the difficult tasks like parsing? Iterating all possible y? Approximation? | ||
