[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-1629) contrib intelligent Analyzer for
Chinese
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-1629?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12706782#action_12706782 ]
Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-1629:
--------------------------------------------
Patch looks good -- thanks Xiaoping!
One problem is that contrib/analyzers is currently limited to Java 1.4, and I don't think we should change that at this point (though in 3.0, we will change it to 1.5). How hard would it be to switch your sources to use only Java 1.4?
A couple other issues:
* Each copyright header is missing the starting 'S' in the sentence 'ee the License for the specific language governing permissions and'
* Can you remove the @author tags? (Lucene sources don't include author tags anymore)

> I wrote a Analyzer for apache lucene for analyzing sentences in Chinese language. it's called "imdict-chinese-analyzer", the project on google code is here: http://code.google.com/p/imdict-chinese-analyzer/
> In Chinese, "我是中国人"(I am Chinese), should be tokenized as "我"(I) "是"(am) "中国人"(Chinese), not "我" "是中" "国人". So the analyzer must handle each sentence properly, or there will be mis-understandings everywhere in the index constructed by Lucene, and the accuracy of the search engine will be affected seriously!
> Although there are two analyzer packages in apache repository which can handle Chinese: ChineseAnalyzer and CJKAnalyzer, they take each character or every two adjoining characters as a single word, this is obviously not true in reality, also this strategy will increase the index size and hurt the performance baddly.
> The algorithm of imdict-chinese-analyzer is based on Hidden Markov Model (HMM), so it can tokenize chinese sentence in a really intelligent way. Tokenizaion accuracy of this model is above 90% according to the paper "HHMM-based Chinese Lexical analyzer ICTCLAL" while other analyzer's is about 60%.
> As imdict-chinese-analyzer is a really fast and intelligent. I want to contribute it to the apache lucene repository.
