"""
A classifier model based on maximum entropy modeling framework. This
framework considers all of the probability distributions that are
empirically consistent with the training data; and chooses the
distribution with the highest entropy. A probability distribution is
"empirically consistent" with a set of training data if its estimated
frequency with which a class and a feature vector value co-occur is
equal to the actual frequency in the data.
Terminology: 'feature'
======================
The term *feature* is usually used to refer to some property of an
unlabeled token. For example, when performing word sense
disambiguation, we might define a ``'prevword'`` feature whose value is
the word preceding the target word. However, in the context of
maxent modeling, the term *feature* is typically used to refer to a
property of a "labeled" token. In order to prevent confusion, we
will introduce two distinct terms to disambiguate these two different
concepts:
- An "input-feature" is a property of an unlabeled token.
- A "joint-feature" is a property of a labeled token.
In the rest of the ``nltk.classify`` module, the term "features" is
used to refer to what we will call "input-features" in this module.
In literature that describes and discusses maximum entropy models,
input-features are typically called "contexts", and joint-features
are simply referred to as "features".
Converting Input-Features to Joint-Features
-------------------------------------------
In maximum entropy models, joint-features are required to have numeric
values. Typically, each input-feature ``input_feat`` is mapped to a
set of joint-features of the form:
| joint_feat(token, label) = { 1 if input_feat(token) == feat_val
| { and label == some_label
| {
| { 0 otherwise
For all values of ``feat_val`` and ``some_label``. This mapping is
performed by classes that implement the ``MaxentFeatureEncodingI``
interface.

| delta[i] -= (ffreq_empirical[i] - sum1[i])/(-sum2[i])
until convergence, where *sum1* and *sum2* are defined as:

Note that *sum1* and *sum2* depend on ``delta``; so they need
to be re-computed each iteration.
The variables ``nfmap``, ``nfarray``, and ``nftranspose`` are
used to generate a dense encoding for *nf(ltext)*. This
allows ``_deltas`` to calculate *sum1* and *sum2* using
