    Apache Lucene OpenNLP integration module
  


This module exposes functionality from Apache OpenNLP to Apache Lucene. The Apache OpenNLP library is a machine learning based toolkit for the processing of natural language text.

For an introduction to Lucene's analysis API, see the {@link org.apache.lucene.analysis} package documentation.

The OpenNLP Tokenizer behavior is similar to the WhiteSpaceTokenizer but is smart about inter-word punctuation. The term stream looks very much like the way you parse words and punctuation while reading. The major difference between this tokenizer and most other tokenizers shipped with Lucene is that punctuation is tokenized. This is required for the following taggers to operate properly.

The OpenNLP taggers annotate terms using the TypeAttribute.

  • OpenNLPTokenizer segments text into sentences or words. This Tokenizer uses the OpenNLP Sentence Detector and/or Tokenizer classes. When used together, the Tokenizer receives sentences and can do a better job.
  • OpenNLPFilter tags words using one or more technologies: Part-of-Speech, Chunking, and Named Entity Recognition. These tags are assigned as token types. Note that only of these operations will tag

Since the TypeAttribute is not stored in the index, it is recommended that one of these filters is used following OpenNLPFilter to enable search against the assigned tags:

  • TypeAsPayloadFilter copies the TypeAttribute value to the PayloadAttribute
  • TypeAsSynonymFilter creates a cloned token at the same position as each tagged token, and copies the {{TypeAttribute}} value to the {{CharTermAttribute}}, optionally with a customized prefix (so that tags effectively occupy a different namespace from token text).
