Hi, I tested SentenceDetectorAnnotatorBIO in cTAKES 4.0.0, simply by replacing SentenceDetectorAnnotator.xml with SentenceDetectorAnnotatorBIO.xml in AggregatePlaintextFastUMLSProcessor.xml.
While it seemed to work, I noticed that in one example, an IdentifiedAnnotation was not found, that was found for the same input with just SentenceDetectorAnnotator.xml. Could somebody check this please? Run the cTAKES CVD with the following input (without the "): " aspirin his leg " On the machine I tested this, the MedicationMention does not show up with SentenceDetectorAnnotatorBIO, but it does with SentenceDetectorAnnotator. ________________________________________ From: Masoud Rouhizadeh <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, March 13, 2018 3:02:35 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Sentence splitter [EXTERNAL] Hi Sean, Thank you for the pointer. I was able to run the SentenceDetectorAnnotatorBIO from ctakes-core. The results are way better than the SentenceDetectorAnnotator but I still see some issues such as splitting “Dr.” as a separate sentence (most likely due to the period after the abbreviation). Do you think there is a way to define an abbreviation list for SentenceDetectorAnnotatorBIO so that it knows that this is a word-final (i.e. abbreviation-final) and not a sentence-final period?

It will split sentences based upon features other than just a newline character, which appears to be what you want.

I was wondering what types of sentence splitters are available in cTAKES? The default sentence splitter does not appear to be the best one.
