This is some code I wrote during graduate school for my work with Thorsten Joachims, in order to faciliate developing SVMstruct extensions using Python, instead of having to program a C API. This enabled for more rapid prototyping, at the cost of course of lower runtime speed.
Please see docs for more information on how it works, or the project page.
Note that this repository and code has not been updated since 2007, and is now meant for archival purposes. That is, it is in no way supported as an active software artifact. Python and machine learning have, in any event, changed quite a bit.
