trouble training new data #216

Closed hurnhu closed 6 years ago

hurnhu commented 6 years ago

I've added 20 addresses for training, tagged them, and then trained using parserator train training/labeled.xml,training/new_addresses.xml usaddress.

but when I try to test the new traning with parserator label measure_performance/test_data/new_tests.csv measure_performance/test_data/new_tests.xml usaddress it still recommends the incorrect tags. the tags that it is recommending are exactly the same as the ones it recommenced when training. is this becuase i installed usaddress via pip first and then downloaded the git repo? as it does not seem to be using the new training model.

It's possible that the version of usaddress that you got via pip is taking priority over the new model in your Python PATH. IIRC you should be able to run pip install -e <path/to/usaddress> to install a local version of a package with pip. You could also run pip uninstall usaddress first just to make sure you've cleared out the old version. Does that end up fixing your issue?

Yes this was due t the pip install taking over. Creating a python virtual environment fixed the problem
