Summary
The authors want to be able to incorporate a cost function (present in structured SVMs) into standard conditional log-likelihood models. They introduce the softmax-margin objective function that achieves the best of both worlds. Using a NER task, it performs significantly better than a standard conditional loglikelihood model, a max-margin model, and the perceptron, but is indistinguishable from MIRA, risk, and JRB (Jensen risk bound; defined in the paper).
