<code class="descclassname">paddle.v2.evaluator.</code><code class="descname">chunk</code><span class="sig-paren">(</span><em>*args</em>, <em>**xargs</em><span class="sig-paren">)</span></dt>
<dd><p>Chunk evaluator is used to evaluate segment labelling accuracy for a
sequence. It calculates precision, recall and F1 scores for the chunk detection.</p>
<p>To use chunk evaluator, several concepts need to be clarified firstly.</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><strong>Chunk type</strong> is the type of the whole chunk and a chunk consists of one or several words.  (For example in NER, ORG for organization name, PER for person name etc.)</li>
<li><strong>Tag type</strong> indicates the position of a word in a chunk. (B for begin, I for inside, E for end, S for single)</li>
</ul>
<p>We can name a label by combining tag type and chunk type. (ie. B-ORG for begining of an organization name)</p>
<p>The construction of label dictionary should obey the following rules:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Use one of the listed labelling schemes. These schemes differ in ways indicating chunk boundry.</li>
</ul>
<div class="highlight-text"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>Scheme    Description
plain    Use the same label for the whole chunk.
IOB      Two labels for chunk type X, B-X for chunk begining and I-X for chunk inside.
IOE      Two labels for chunk type X, E-X for chunk ending and I-X for chunk inside.
IOBES    Four labels for chunk type X, B-X for chunk begining, I-X for chunk inside, E-X for chunk end and S-X for single word chunk.
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>To make it clear, let&#8217;s illustrate by an NER example.
Assuming that there are three named entity types including ORG, PER and LOC which are called &#8216;chunk type&#8217; here,
if &#8216;IOB&#8217; scheme were used, the label set will be extended to a set including B-ORG, I-ORG, B-PER, I-PER, B-LOC, I-LOC and O,
in which B-ORG for begining of ORG and I-ORG for inside of ORG.
Prefixes which are called &#8216;tag type&#8217; here are added to chunk types and there are two tag types including B and I.
Of course, the training data should be labeled accordingly.</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Mapping is done correctly by the listed equations and assigning protocol.</li>
</ul>
<p>The following table are equations to extract tag type and chunk type from a label.</p>
<div class="highlight-text"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>tagType = label % numTagType
chunkType = label / numTagType
otherChunkType = numChunkTypes
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The following table shows the mapping rule between tagType and tag type in each scheme.</p>
<div class="highlight-text"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>Scheme Begin Inside End   Single
plain  0     -      -     -
IOB    0     1      -     -
IOE    -     0      1     -
IOBES  0     1      2     3
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Continue the NER example, and the label dict should look like this to satify above equations:</p>
<div class="highlight-text"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>B-ORG  0
I-ORG  1
B-PER  2
I-PER  3
B-LOC  4
I-LOC  5
O      6
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>In this example, chunkType has three values: 0 for ORG, 1 for PER, 2 for LOC, because the scheme is
&#8220;IOB&#8221; so tagType has two values: 0 for B and 1 for I.
Here we will use I-LOC to explain the above mapping rules in detail.
For I-LOC, the label id is 5, so we can get tagType=1 and chunkType=2, which means I-LOC is a part of NER chunk LOC
and the tag is I.</p>
