-------------------------------------
Summary: Ruta: Inconsistency Interpreter vs. Guide on VOTE
Key: UIMA-6338
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-6338
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Proposal
Components: Ruta
Affects Versions: 2.8.1ruta
Reporter: Michael Stenger
Fix For: 2.9.0ruta
Hi again.
This may be a bug, but I believe the following is more of a misleading
formulation in the Ruta Guide:
Comparing the explanation in the official Guide for version 2.8.1 on condition
VOTE to its actual behaviour and the source code, there are two things that I
find confusing/misleading:
- The Guide says on the range within which annotations of these two types have
to be located in to count in this condition: "annotations of the given two
types within the window of the matched annotation". However, practically, all
annotations of these types are considered that START (first basic token) within
the matched range.
- Furthermore, the Guide says something about counting annotations, which from
my experience isn't quite true: As long as they start with the same basic
token, any number of annotations of one type accounts for only one occurrence
as far as VOTE is concerned.
In case my observations are correct, I'd like to suggest changing the Guide to
reflect that behaviour.
I could provide an example if necessary, but I thinks this gets the point
across just fine.
Best regards,
Michael
