A structural SVM, on the other hand, can learn to predict outputs as complex predictions. A structural SVM, on the other hand, can learn to predict
as entire parse trees. To do this, it learns a function F(x,y) which measures complex outputs such as entire parse trees or DNA sequence alignments. To
