Hi all,
I am interested in writing Natural Language Processing (NLP) tools in Julia. My name is Sorami, I am a data scientist at BrainPad Inc. in Tokyo, Japan. I used to be a graduate student doing NLP. I am much interested in Julia, and I see its great potential as a powerful NLP / Text Mining tool. ----- I have read the "Natural language processing in Julia" posts in julia-user Group ( https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/julia-users/nlp/julia-users/SxB16X6lM1c/IWidFfJaDhUJ ); Are there any updates on Julia+NLP since then? Is "JuliaText" ( https://github.com/JuliaText ) the center for NLP stuff? How about "TextAnalysis.jl"? ----- FYI: I have uploaded the source code for a naïve "Dependency Parser" in Julia, which I wrote when I was playing around with Julia. https://github.com/sorami/DependencyParser.jl (Dependency parser is a kind of syntactic analysis tool for natural languages like English or Japanese) Cheers, -- Sorami Hisamoto http://89.io On Tuesday, January 28, 2014 1:31:07 AM UTC+9, John Myles White wrote: > > JuliaText would be great. > > TextAnalysis.jl really needs a lot of love to move forward.
