Is there any advantage of using MEMM instead of CRF for named-entity recognition?

I wonder whether there is any advantage of using maximum-entropy Markov model (MEMM), a.k.a. conditional Markov model (CMM) instead of using conditional random fields (CRF) for named-entity recognition, aside from the training cost.
