* Package name : collatinus-nouus Version : 0.9 Upstream Contact: Yves Ouvrard <[email protected]> * URL : https://www.collatinus.org/ * License : LGPL-3 Programming Lang: Go, Python3, Javascript Description : lemmatisation of Latin text Collatinus-nouus can be used to lemmatise Latin texts, i.e. extract words and make a lexicon which indicates for each word its canonic form, and how the form actually found in the text was derived from it, for instance by declining it. Example : rosam gives : rosa-rosae -- acc. sing. Collatinus-gui provides a nice graphic front-end to each operation. . Collatinus-nouus implements a web server as a user interface for the lemmatisation. ---- I am already maintaing the package "collatinus" (https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/collatinus) "collatinus-nouus" can be translated to "the new collatinus", or "collatinus- ng" to fit current fashions in package naming. The version 12.3 of collatinus is the last one to be uploaded to Debian (however there may be releases beyond 12.3-1 in the future, for example to fix security breaches if any) Collatinus-nouus introduces a new approach: 1. the lemmatization engine is stable, and based on Go source code, and a better algorithm to lemmatize text. Its natural interface is a web service. 2. the binary package collatinus-gui which comes along with collatinus-nouus is a proof of concept, however fully usable in educational contexts. It may be used as an example of implementation of rich user interfaces based on collatinus-nouus' service. Collatinus-gui is written in Python3 code, with PyQt6' library, uses templates developed with Qt-designer, and a few Javascript snippets to deal with HTML pages. This package is maintained at https://salsa.debian.org/georgesk/collatinus- nouus and is currently in good shape.
