Method Detail

getContext

String[] getContext(int index,
                    T[] sequence,
                    String[] priorDecisions,
                    Object[] additionalContext)

Returns the context for the specified position in the specified sequence (list).

Parameters:

index - The index of the sequence.

sequence - The sequence of items over which the beam search is performed.

priorDecisions - The sequence of decisions made prior to the context for which this decision is being made.

additionalContext - Any addition context specific to a class implementing this interface.

Returns:

the context for the specified position in the specified sequence.
