public interface SolutionDecoder<ST extends Solution>

Descendants take classifiers (or a set of input structures), and produce a Solution appropriate to the evaluation tasks. For example, if the input is a Doc and the classifiers determine BIO boundaries for mentions, then the natural output (Solution) is a Collection of Mentions.
