Hello, I'm fairly new to GATE, and I'm trying to use it for information extraction, through the Batch ML PR. I've managed to make my way through up to running it (corpus annotated with both labels and features + config. file). Well, when I'm saying "running" I'm being slightly optimistic. I should rather say that now is troubleshooting time, and I'd really appreciate some help on a couple of questions (btw, I'm running SVMLibSvmJava). - First off, I couldn't find much information on the web re troubleshooting, but maybe I haven't been looking at the right places? Would there be any documents (on or offline) that I should consult before bothering this list's users with newbies' questions? - Second, when running the learner (in EVALUATION mode) I get an ArrayOutOfBoundException. Not so good, generally... I've been trying to identifying the source of the problem, but no luck so far. The configuration file is certainly to be blamed, but I can't find where the problem is, and I'm running short of ideas. Following are snippets of the output message from the API, and of the log file. It looks like no classes are found, so I'm looking in that direction (the data set of in my config file has a <class/> element in one of the attributes). Cheers, JP ************** Output message ************************* Pre-processing the 50 documents... Learning starts.
