Hi all,
I'm pretty new to OpenNLP.
My interest is almost related to fetch document summaries using
algorithms such as TextRank.
This task requires sentence and token splitting - here's where OpenNLP
enters the game.
I also need some degree of POS to detect nouns, verbs and so on, in
order to add some linguistic support to the ranking process.
It was fairly surprising to discover that noun tags - for example - are
language dependent. Thus an "isNoun" predicate needs a specific answer
for each language. It's "NN" for English, but it may be different for
others.
I just wonder if there is a common (e.g. language-independent) way to
answer such a kind of questions.
Furthermore, is the logical format of available binary files documented
anywhere ? Is there any way to browse those files to inspect the used
tag list ?
Thanks,
Renzo
