Conditional Random Field defines an undirected probabilistic graph with nodes
denoting random variables and edges denoting dependencies between these
variables. CRF learns the conditional probability \f$P(Y|X)\f$, where
\f$X = (x_1, x_2, ... , x_n)\f$ are structured inputs and
\f$Y = (y_1, y_2, ... , y_n)\f$ are labels for the inputs.

Linear chain CRF is a special case of CRF that is useful for sequence labeling
task. Sequence labeling tasks do not assume a lot of conditional
independences among inputs. They only concern about the input and the output
being linear sequences. Thus, the graph model of CRF is a simple chain or
a line, which results in a linear chain CRF.

This operator implements the Forward-Backward algorithm for linear chain CRF.
Please see http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~mcollins/fb.pdf for reference.

Equation:

- Denote the first input of this operator (Emission) as \f$x\f$ here.
- The first D values of the second input (Transition) of this operator are for
starting weights, denoted as \f$a\f$ here.
- The next D values of the second input (Transition) of this operator are for
ending weights, denoted as \f$b\f$ here.
- The remaning values of the second input (Transition) are for transition
weights, denoted as \f$w\f$ here.
- Denote the third input of this operator (Label) as \f$s\f$ here.

The probability of a sequence \f$s\f$ of length \f$L\f$ is defined as:
\f$P(s) = (1/Z) exp(a_{s_1} + b_{s_L}
                 + \sum_{l=1}^L x_{s_l}
                 + \sum_{l=2}^L w_{s_{l-1},s_l})\f$
where \f$Z\f$ is a normalization value so that the sum of \f$P(s)\f$ over
all possible sequences is \f$1\f$, and \f$x\f$ is the emission feature weight
to the linear chain CRF.

Finaly, the linear chain CRF operator outputs the logarithm of the conditional
likelihood of each training sample in a mini-batch.

NOTE:
1. The feature function for a CRF is made up of the emission features and the
transition features. The emission feature weights are NOT computed in
this operator. They MUST be computed first before this operator is called.

2. Because this operator performs globally normaliztion over all possible
sequences internally, it expects UNSCALED emission feature weights.
Please do not call this op with the emission feature being output of any
nonlinear activation.

3. The 2nd dimension of the first input of this operator (Emission) MUST be
equal to the tag number.
