Hello,

Has anyone been able to train the name finder? I followed the instructions
in the wiki and used pieces of the sample code, but keep getting the
following:

Indexing events using cutoff of 5

Computing event counts...  done. 29376 events
Indexing...  done.
Sorting and merging events... done. Reduced 29376 events to 8313.
Done indexing.
Incorporating indexed data for training...
done.
Number of Event Tokens: 8313
    Number of Outcomes: 1
  Number of Predicates: 11869
...done.
Computing model parameters...
Performing 100 iterations.

  2:  .. loglikelihood=0.0 1.0
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Model not
compatible with name finder!

My training data looks like this:
<START:person>Neil Abercrombie<END>
<START:person>Anibal Acevedo-Vila<END>
<START:person>Gary Ackerman<END>
<START:person>Robert Aderholt<END>
<START:person>Daniel Akaka<END>
<START:person>Todd Akin<END>
<START:person>Lamar Alexander<END>
<START:person>Rodney Alexander<END>

I appreciate any help that can be provided . Thank you.
