Cohan Sujay Carlos commented on OPENNLP-777:
--------------------------------------------
Tommaso,
The problem in the above testcases seems to be in the use of the
GenericModelWriter.
Each of the machine learning algorithms has its own set of ModelWriter and
ModelReader classes which must be used to persist their models.
The Writers come in one of 2 flavours - Binary and PlainText.
So, the following testcases work for me (one thing that baffled me was that I
had to use constructModel rather than getModel to make these testcases work).
I hope that answers your question.
@Test
public void testBinaryModelPersistence() throws Exception {
NaiveBayesModel model = (NaiveBayesModel)new
NaiveBayesTrainer().trainModel(new TwoPassDataIndexer(
NaiveBayesCorrectnessTest.createTrainingStream(), 1, false));
File file = new File("test.bin");
NaiveBayesModelWriter modelWriter = new
BinaryNaiveBayesModelWriter(model, file);
modelWriter.persist();
NaiveBayesModelReader reader = new
BinaryNaiveBayesModelReader(file);
reader.checkModelType();
AbstractModel abstractModel = reader.constructModel();
assertNotNull(abstractModel);
}
@Test
public void testTextModelPersistence() throws Exception {
NaiveBayesModel model = (NaiveBayesModel)new
NaiveBayesTrainer().trainModel(new TwoPassDataIndexer(
NaiveBayesCorrectnessTest.createTrainingStream(), 1, false));
File file = new File("test.txt");
NaiveBayesModelWriter modelWriter = new
PlainTextNaiveBayesModelWriter(model, file);
modelWriter.persist();
NaiveBayesModelReader reader = new
PlainTextNaiveBayesModelReader(file);
reader.checkModelType();
AbstractModel abstractModel = reader.constructModel();
assertNotNull(abstractModel);
}

> I thought it would be nice to have a Naive Bayesian classifier in OpenNLP (it
> lacks one at present).
> Implementation details: We have a production-hardened piece of Java code for
> a multinomial Naive Bayesian classifier (with default Laplace smoothing) that
> we'd like to contribute. The code is Java 1.5 compatible. I'd have to write
> an adapter to make the interface compatible with the ME classifier in
> OpenNLP. I expect the patch to be available 1 to 3 weeks from now.
> Below is the email trail of a discussion in the dev mailing list around this
> dated May 19th, 2015.

> Hi Cohan,
> I think that'd be a very valuable contribution, as NB is one of the
> foundation algorithms, often used as basis for comparisons.
> It would be good if you could create a Jira issue and provide more details
> about the implementation and, eventually, a patch.
> Thanks and regards,

> > An NB classifier could be bootstrapped up with partially labelled training
