Experimenting with Mallet reimiplementation

[Horsmann]

Mallet is at the moment Deprecated since release 0.7.0 it has been removed during 0.9.0-SNAPSHOT to ease maintenance of code.

If Mallet is to be revived the module should be reimplemented from scratch. The old version of Mallet is parked on a separate branch as reference mallet_issue352 .

Furthermore note there are new releases of Mallet which should be use

I added a basic runnable version for sequence classification. CRF seems to work in various configurations but HMM keeps failing during the evaluation step.

The code is much more readable than before. It would be cool to get this HMM running but I am out of ideas what is wrong.

Is mallet fully integrated now? Did you manage to get HMMs working?

and how dies this issue relate to #377?

I threw my prototype away. However tries this again better starts from scratch again. This was in no proper state as nothing was really working or rather randomly failing.

I closed this issue and reopened it to avoid that anyone tries to use my faulty version as template.
