Creating Custom Dictionary

["Kumar, Avanish" <av...@optum.com>]

Hi,
I am trying to build a custom dictionary (our own, and not UMLS subset one) and below are steps how far we reached.


1.       Used a program to develop Lucene form of custom dictionary.

Output - LuceneIndexDirectory

2.       Made changes to LookupDESC.XML file to configure our own dictionary (LuceneIndexDirectory in externalResourceKey node).

3.       Included the dictionary lookup annotator in the pipeline using UIMAFit.

builder.add(AnalysisEngineFactory.createEngineDescription(DictionaryLookupAnnotator.class)); // Not able to resolve the path of LookupDESC.Xml

Unable to find descriptor file of DictionaryLookupAnnotator and hence unable to give the path of LookupDESC.xml in that descriptor file.

4.       Ran the project and got resource initialization exception.

Please let me know what I am missing here. Or if you can send us a guide to develop custom dictionary and integrate it would be helpful.

Thanks,
Avanish
