Query: Efficient Learning of Sparse Conditional Random Fields for Supervised
  Sequence Labelling   Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) constitute a popular and efficient approach
for supervised sequence labelling. CRFs can cope with large description spaces
and can integrate some form of structural dependency between labels. In this
contribution, we address the issue of efficient feature selection for CRFs
based on imposing sparsity through an L1 penalty. We first show how sparsity of
the parameter set can be exploited to significantly speed up training and
labelling. We then introduce coordinate descent parameter update schemes for
CRFs with L1 regularization. We finally provide some empirical comparisons of
the proposed approach with state-of-the-art CRF training strategies. In
particular, it is shown that the proposed approach is able to take profit of
the sparsity to speed up processing and hence potentially handle larger
dimensional models.
