层级分类
层级分类
用 TypeSafe Choice 概率上的并行束搜索，把文档分进专利、零售商品、生物医学和源代码等深层层级。
很多数据都以结构化的层级存在，比如分类体系、文件系统
层级、网站结构、代码库、组织架构图、生物本体、LLM 技能、
审核政策等等。层级分类的目标，是沿着层级走到正确的叶子节点，
也就是最终的分类。这非常适合 typesafe 的 Choice 原语。我们从根节点开始，
在每个节点上给文档分类，找出最可能的叶子，然后迭代地走向下一个
最可能的节点，直到落到一片叶子上（贪心搜索）。
API 的并行特性还让我们能用束搜索并行提问、探索多条路径，
以提升效果。这个 cookbook 的 TypeSafe API 调用会同时评估层级里的 K 条路径。
束搜索按几何平均边概率保留最好的 K 条路径：
product(edge_probabilities) ** (1 / decisions)，
其余的剪掉。概率做了长度归一化，好让浅层的叶子和深层的叶子
被公平比较。
把问题这样拆成层级，本身就有好处：
- 可观测性
- 找出你的误分类最常发生在哪些节点
- 统计每个节点和每条边被走过的次数
- 可测试性
- 对层级改动做单元测试，衡量它对分类效果的影响
-
这个 cookbook 用到的层级
- CPC 2026.05： 专利主题，从宽泛的技术大类到狭窄的发明。
- Shopify 2026-02： 零售商品品类，从商店部门到具体产品类型。
- MeSH 2026： 生物医学主题，从宽泛的领域到具体病症。MeSH 是一个 DAG，所以一个 描述符可以出现在多个父节点下；这个 demo 展开了它官方的树号 路径。
- CookSafe 文件： TypeSafe 的 cookbook 仓库层级，从文件夹一路搜到 源文件。
方法
- 贪心搜索： 选概率最高的子节点，丢弃所有其它分支。 一个早期错误无法挽回。
- 束搜索： 保留
K条看起来合理的路径，并行地给每个前沿分类。 更深的证据可以修正一个含糊的早期决定。几何平均概率最高的那条路径的 叶子节点，就是最终分类。 - TypeSafe Choice： 每个节点都是一道
Choice问题，它的完整概率 分布就是它的 边。束里的每条路径都作为并行的问题跑，所以额外的探索几乎不增加 墙钟延迟。 - 公式：
path_score = product(edge_probabilities) ** (1 / decisions)- 用于剪枝和比较路径
separation = top_path_score / second_path_score- 有用的指标，但不用于剪枝
- 这个比值把最好路径的几何平均和它最接近的对手作比较。
- 接近
1×表示含糊 - 比值很大表示区分得很清楚。
- 接近
- 关于指标的说明：
- 也可以用别的指标，比如
min(top_prob/second_top_prob)，它会偏向 那些在每个节点都有非常明确决断的路径。 - 对非常深的层级（比如超过 10 层），用
exp(mean(log(probs)))代替product(edge_probabilities) ** (1 / decisions)， 以避免精度误差。
- 也可以用别的指标，比如
加载并可视化示例层级
这些辅助函数会下载固定版本的分类数据源，把它们解析成直接子节点树， 并把每次搜索遍历渲染成一张静态 SVG。

每个例子都有一个已知的期望叶子。束搜索在 4 个期望叶子中命中了 4 个；贪心搜索命中了 4 个中的 2 个。保留三条路径为 CPC 专利、Shopify 商品找回了期望分类。
