Class FilterConfusingRules

java.lang.Object

edu.stanford.nlp.parser.dvparser.FilterConfusingRules

All Implemented Interfaces:

Filter<Tree>, java.io.Serializable

public class FilterConfusingRules
extends java.lang.Object
implements Filter<Tree>

This filter rejects Trees which have unary or binary productions which the given parser does not contain.
One situation where this happens often is when grammar compaction is turned on; this can often result in a Tree where there is no BinaryRule which could explicitely create a particular node, but the Tree is still valid. However, for various applications of the DVParser, this kind of Tree is useless. A good way to eliminate most of this kind of tree is to make sure the parser is trained with -compactGrammar 0.
