Patterns Of Life (PoLi)
Patterns are all around us.
We expanded the use cases of geographic coordinates and
date/time patterns into other common patterns that occur in daily
life and business: telephone numbers, URLs, money/currency, cyber
addresses, etc. These work best when you are trying to make
all of your entity extraction look similar to the standard
Xponents approach rendering things down to TextMatch
annotation objects
Since pattern development is required here, we strongly suggest
you start by looking at the tester TestPoLi, which has a main
program.
ant -f ./script/testing.xml
test-poli <args>
Available patterns in this toolkit are listed at src/main/resources/poli_patterns.cfgYou develop a pattern, a test case for it, and then iteratively refine as you test -- using the the TestPoLi tool to test if your patterns are working.
