java.lang.Object

edu.stanford.nlp.trees.UnnamedDependency

edu.stanford.nlp.trees.NamedDependency

All Implemented Interfaces:

Dependency<Label,Label,java.lang.Object>, java.io.Serializable

public class NamedDependency
extends UnnamedDependency

An individual dependency between a head and a dependent. The head and dependent are represented as a Label. For example, these can be a Word or a WordTag. If one wishes the dependencies to preserve positions in a sentence, then each can be a NamedConstituent.

Overrides:

name in class UnnamedDependency

Returns:

the name for this dependency type

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class UnnamedDependency

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class UnnamedDependency

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:
