1. _forward_alg代码
def _forward_alg(self, feats):
# Do the forward algorithm to compute the partition function
init_alphas = torch.full((1, self.tagset_size), -10000.)
# START_TAG has all of the score.
init_alphas[0][self.tag_to_ix[START_TAG]] = 0.
# Wrap in a variable so that we will get automatic backprop
forward_var = init_alphas
# Iterate through the sentence
for feat in feats:
alphas_t = [] # The forward tensors at this timestep
for next_tag in range(self.tagset_size):
# broadcast the emission score: it is the same regardless of
# the previous tag
emit_score = feat[next_tag].view(
1, -1).expand(1, self.tagset_size)
# the ith entry of trans_score is the score of transitioning to
# n
