Re: Some questions about Dictionary and DictionaryNameFinder

[Loic Descotte]

Hello again, Please forget the previous mail about problem #2. There was a problem in my code, it's working good now! So I'm just looking for way to solve my #1 problem now :) Is this feature (attribute lookup) implemented in another class than DictionaryNameFinder? Thanks, have a nice day Loic Le 21.12.2011 09:33, Loic Descotte a écrit : Hello James, Thanks for your answers. For #2, I've tried to do it with a tokenizer. When I have a composed name, I insert it in the dictionary like this : String[] stringList = tokenizer.tokenize(myItem); Entry entry = new Entry(new StringList(stringList), attributes); So in my dictionary file I have : <entry display="vegetable"> <token>green</token> <token>cabbage</token> </entry> But it's not working for me. If my text is "I like green cabbage" then the DictionaryNameFinder will only find the first token, "green", not "cabbage". Is it normal? For #1, does anyone have a solution to get the attributes values ? Or is it not implemented yet?

I'm still looking at the bug for #3. James On 12/20/2011 8:38 AM, Loic Descotte wrote: Hello, I'm trying to use OpenNLP Dictionary and DictionaryNameFinder to do a dictionnary lookup. I'm building my dictionary with the DictionarySerializer class. My dictionary contains entries with attributes. Example : <dictionary case_sensitive="false"> <entry ref="cheese"> <token>cheddar</token> </entry> <entry ref="vegetable"> <token>tomato</token> </entry> </dictionary> The keyword lookup is working but there are things I don't know how to do. 1. When I find a token in a text , I get a list of Span objects : Span[] spans = finder.find(tokenizedText); I don't know how to retrieve the found token attributes: For example, if I find "tomato", I would like to be able to retrieve the "ref" attribute (vegetable). 2. If in my dictionary I want to find a composed name (e.g. green cabbage) , I am able to find "green", "cabage", but not "green cabbage". Is there a special way to insert composed names in the dictionary? 3. I've set my dictionnary to "case_sensitive="false" " but if there is "Tomato" in my text, then "tomato" will not be found. Thanks a lot for your help -- Loic ________________________________ Kelkoo SAS Société par Actions Simplifiée Au capital de € 4.168.964,30 Siège social : 8, rue du Sentier 75002 Paris 425 093 069 RCS Paris Ce message et les pièces jointes sont confidentiels et établis à l'attention exclusive de leurs destinataires.
