- This example shows how to use dlib to learn to do sequence segmentation. In a sequence
- segmentation task we are given a sequence of objects (e.g. words in a sentence) and we
- are supposed to detect certain subsequences (e.g. the names of people). Therefore, in
- the code below we create some very simple training sequences and use them to learn a
- sequence segmentation model. In particular, our sequences will be sentences
- represented as arrays of words and our task will be to learn to identify person names.
- Once we have our segmentation model we can use it to find names in new sentences, as we
- will show.

- this method would call:
- set_feature(55);
- Or equivalently:
- set_feature(55,1);
- Therefore, the first argument to set_feature is the index of the feature
- to be set while the second argument is the value the feature should take.
- Additionally, note that calling set_feature() multiple times with the
- same feature index does NOT overwrite the old value, it adds to the
- previous value. For example, if you call set_feature(55) 3 times then it
