I don't have much experience with Heideltime, but I think this would be a great addition to ctakes, so if you know Heideltime a bit and you're willing to put in the effort I'm happy to help with your understanding the typesystem. I don't know that there's an easy way of 'converting' other than just writing some java code in a UIMA analysis engine that converts UIMA types to whatever Heideltime reads, makes a call to Heideltime, and then iterates over types output from Heideltime and creating the equivalent UIMA types. If you have some more info on what sort of conversion you had in mind let me know. Tim

PS: It seems Nactem had a code for it, but it does not work ( https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_argo-2Dnactem_nactem-2Dtype-2Dmapper&d=DwIBaQ&c=qS4goWBT7poplM69zy_3xhKwEW14JZMSdioCoppxeFU&r=Heup-IbsIg9Q1TPOylpP9FE4GTK-OqdTDRRNQXipowRLRjx0ibQrHEo8uYx6674h&m=OpaELc8Grwv2E1s2bEQTdL8LDw39-LJdnTMrUg6g6wI&s=DOFLsY1vAaBiOUXHNn3FuggLUuZBT4-DbwRnNH47xMQ&e=) With Best Wishes, Siamak
