Hi Hoang, Can you let me know what version of cTAKES you're using? I looked in that location in trunk and found a null check, so it could be that it's a bug that's been fixed already. In the meantime, if you just want to see if your dictionary is working right, you could disable the SubjectAttributeClassifier which seems to be the annotator where this error is coming from. Some of the other attributes rely on dependency features as well so you might disable them temporarily as well. Tim
