Uses of Annotation in org.opensextant.annotations

Methods in org.opensextant.annotations that return Annotation

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
Annotation	AnnotationHelper.cacheAnnotation(String contrib, String etype, String value, int start, String docid)	Cache entity annotations, accumulating unique offsets for a name/value pair.
protected Annotation	AnnotationHelper.cacheTaxonAnnotation(String contrib, Taxon taxon, String value, int offset, String docid)	Cache taxon entity annotation.
static Annotation	AnnotationHelper.createAnnotation(String contrib, String type, String val, int offset, int len, String docid)
static Annotation	AnnotationHelper.createAnnotation(String contrib, String type, String val, int offset, String docid)	Creates a standard named entity annotation.
static Annotation	AnnotationHelper.createCountryAnnotation(String contrib, String type, String val, int offset, String docid, String country_code)	Tracking a country name match of some sort.
static Annotation	AnnotationHelper.createGeocodingAnnotation(String contrib, String type, String val, int offset, String docid, Geocoding g)	Encode geocoding annotations to be saved.
static Annotation	AnnotationHelper.createTaxonAnnotation(String contrib, String type, String val, int offset, String docid, Taxon n)	Create an annotation for a Taxon node that has a found value, val, in document, docid at offset.
static Annotation	AnnotationHelper.createTemporalAnnotation(String contrib, String type, String val, int offset, int len, String docid, Date d, String resolution)	Same createTemporalEntityAnnotation, just with len param.
static Annotation	AnnotationHelper.createTemporalEntityAnnotation(String contrib, String type, String val, int offset, String docid, Date d, String resolution)	Creates the temporal entity annotation.
Annotation	AnnotationHelper.getCachedAnnotation(String etype, String value)	Careful -- no guarntee that two entity annotations could share the same type/value unintentionally.

Methods in org.opensextant.annotations that return types with arguments of type Annotation

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static List<Annotation>	AnnotationHelper.decodeAnnotations(List<Annotation> codedAnnots)	Given encoded annotations from db, decode them and yield a flattened set of annotations, e.g., for use with MAT
static List<Annotation>	AnnotationHelper.decodeOffsets(Annotation meta, String offsetList)	Generate annotations in a linear fashion.
List<Annotation>	DeepEyeStore.findSimilar(Annotation q)	given the shell of a annot, find similar records.
Collection<Annotation>	AnnotationHelper.getCachedAnnotations()	Gets the cached annotations, unordered.

void	AnnotationHelper.cacheAnnotation(Annotation ea, int start)	Cache entity annotation - in Memory; Note, the actual ID or key in database is usually composed of name+value+contrib.
void	AnnotationHelper.cacheAnnotation(Annotation ea, String key)	Cache an annotation.
static Country	AnnotationHelper.createCountry(Annotation a)	Returns an instance of a Country object using annotation value as country name, and attr[cc] optionally as code.
