All Implemented Interfaces:

ModelUpdateRule

public class MMPMaxUpdateRule
extends MMPUpdateRuleBase

Implementation of max update rule for MMPLearner. Only two perceptrons will receive updates, the one corresponding to the lowest ranked relevant label and the one corresponding to the highest ranked non-relevant label.

The model is represented as a list of perceptrons (one for each label), each represented by Neuron. Perceptrons are expected to be in the same order as labels in training data set.

Constructor Detail

MMPMaxUpdateRule

public MMPMaxUpdateRule(List<Neuron> perceptrons,
                        RankingLossFunction lossMeasure)

Creates a new instance of MMPMaxUpdateRule.

Parameters:

perceptrons - the list of perceptrons, representing the model, which will receive updates.

lossMeasure - the loss measure used to decide when the model should be updated by the rule

Method Detail

computeUpdateParameters

protected double[] computeUpdateParameters(DataPair example,
                                           double[] confidences,
                                           double loss)

Description copied from class: MMPUpdateRuleBase

Computes update parameters for each perceptron which will be subsequently used for updating the weights. The function is called internally from MMPUpdateRuleBase.process(DataPair, Map) function, when update of model for given input example is needed.

Specified by:

computeUpdateParameters in class MMPUpdateRuleBase

Parameters:

example - the input example

confidences - the confidences outputed by the model the input example

loss - the lossFunction measure of the model for given input example

Returns:

the parameters for updating preceptrons
