Summary: FeatureGeneratorUtil.tokenFeature() always returns "lc" for Japanese words Key: OPENNLP-1197 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENNLP-1197 Project: OpenNLP Issue Type: Bug Components: Machine Learning Affects Versions: 1.8.4 Reporter: Koji Sekiguchi FeatureGeneratorUtil.tokenFeature() always recognizes Japanese words as "lc" (lower case). It looks a bug to me because they're not lower case letters, but other than that, it seems that FeatureGeneratorUtil.tokenFeature() takes care only Europe/American languages. For example, in Japanese NER problem, typical token classes are as follows: - DIGIT - HIRA : あ, い, う, え, お etc. - KATA : ア, イ, ウ, エ, オ etc. - ALPHA : we don't distinguish lower/upper case - OTHER I think it's possible that we get FeatureGeneratorUtil.tokenFeature() to have additional token classes I mentioned above, but later on, someone who comes from Asia and may claim similar thing. I'd like to make FeatureGeneratorUtil plugable, but I don't have any idea now. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
