italian-nlp-library's Introduction

Deprecation

This library is not maintained since years, so it is now archived. I recommend Spacy for NLP tasks and Wiktextract for a lexical database (for Italian or pretty much every language).

Italian NLP library

A Java 8 library or REST server to perform NLP tasks on Italian language, more specifically is able to:

detect the conjugation (person, number, time and mode) of a givern verb
conjugate verbs
detect stopwords
detect numbers
PoS tagging, sentencing and tokening (based on OpenNLP)

Verb detection and conjugation are based on an analysis of en.wiktionary, containing about 9000 verb lemmas. When a root is not found, suffixed are used instead.

Use as a REST server

The easiest way is to lunch it with Docker:

docker run -p 5678:5678jacopofar/italian-nlp-library

POS tagger

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json"  -d '{"text":"Mi piace correre e scherzare ma anche bere una tazza di tè"}' "http://localhost:5678/postagger"

{
"annotations": [
  {
    "span_start": 0,
   "span_end": 2,
   "annotation": {
    "POS": "PC"
  }
},
{
  "span_start": 3,
  ...

verb conjugations

curl "http://localhost:5678/conjugations/mangiare"

{
"indicative past historic 2s": "mangiasti",
"indicative future 1s": "mangerò",
"indicative future 1p": "mangeremo",
...

match POS tags

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json"  -d '{"parameter":"S.+","text":"Mi piace correre e scherzare ma anche bere una tazza di tè"}' "http://localhost:5678/posmatch"

Use as a library

Use Maven to build and install it, mvn package to build a JAR To use and test the library is necessary to have a set of resource files which can be downloaded from the releases page
