How do you represent features used by CRF efficiently with Numpy arrays and
Sparse matrices? The reason I'm asking is because most CRF implementations
use "feature templates" to automatically generate features on the fly. So,
I think we may have the same problem with CRFs that we have with HMMs : the
data representation is fundamentally different from the rest of the scikit.
