Interface EventStream

All Known Implementing Classes:

BasicEventStream, EventCollectorAsStream, FileEventStream, RealBasicEventStream, RealValueFileEventStream

public interface EventStream

A object which can deliver a stream of training events for the GIS procedure (or others such as IIS if and when they are implemented). EventStreams don't need to use opennlp.maxent.DataStreams, but doing so would provide greater flexibility for producing events from data stored in different formats.
