    Dear all,

      please check SVMTool v1.2.1 at http://www.lsi.upc.es/~nlp/SVMTool
    <http://www.lsi.upc.es/%7Enlp/SVMTool>,
    developed a the TALP Research Center in Universitat Politècnica de
    Catalunya
    (http://www.lsi.upc.es/~nlp) and released under LGPL.

      In this version some new features have been incorporated, specially:

        * *Sentence-level tagging* improvement (faster decoding, beam serch...)
        * *C parameter tuning* algorithm (against a validation set or
          through /cross-validation/)
        * *Train/Test* options (test against a test set or through
          /cross-validation/)

      Also available now:

        * state-of-the-art pos-tagging models for Catalan, Spanish and
          English (trained on 3LB
          <http://www.dlsi.ua.es/projectes/3lb/index_en.html> and Penn
          Treebank <http://www.cis.upenn.edu/%7Etreebank/home.html>,
          respectively)
        * weight filtering (gain in both speed and accuracy)
        * unknown word features (greater flexibility)
        * use of a softmax function to transform scores into probabilities
          (applicable for sentence-level tagging and LRL tagging)
        * get all predictions (not only the winner)
        * lemmatization (given a lemmae dictionary in a convenient format)
        * very high verbosity

      finally, a memory leak has been fixed.

      do not hesitate to contact me for any comment, suggestion, bug reporting.
    of course, any feedback will be highly appreciated,

      best,

      jesus gimenez
