__init__(self, length, minlength, backoff=None)
(Constructor)

source code 
Overrides: sequential.SequentialBackoffTagger.__init__

choose_tag(self, tokens, index, history)

source code 

Decide which tag should be used for the specified token, and return that tag. If this tagger is unable to determine a tag for the specified token, return None -- do not consult the backoff tagger. This method should be overridden by subclasses of SequentialBackoffTagger.

Parameters:
  • tokens - The list of words that are being tagged.
  • index - The index of the word whose tag should be returned.
  • history - A list of the tags for all words before index.
Returns: str
Overrides: sequential.SequentialBackoffTagger.choose_tag
