Claim One:
1. A system for training a machine learning system, comprising: a training component that performs an iterative loop indexed on feature functions, including: an expected value update component that, for a plurality of outputs and for a plurality of instances in which a single feature function is non-zero, modifies an expected value based, at least in part, upon the single feature function of an input vector and an output value, a sum of lambda variable and a normalization variable; an error calculator that calculates an error based, at least in part, upon the expected value and an observed value; a parameter update component that modifies a trainable parameter based, at least in part, upon the error; and, a variable update component that, for the plurality of outputs and for the plurality of instances in which the feature function is non-zero, sequentially updates at least one of the sum of lambda variable and the normalization variable based, at least in part, upon the error.
