 ====== Decoding ======
-In [[structured prediction]], //**decoding**// refers to predicting the output given the input.  For example, the input could be a sentence, and the output could be a sequence of part-of-speech tags.  In this case, decoding is predicting the POS tags given the input sentence.  The decoding algorithm is the algorithm used to make the predictions (such as dynamic programming, [[beam search]], [[integer linear programming]], etc).  Decoding is also known as //**inference**// (see note below).
