cTAKES FastLookUp AE With Custom Dictionary
Hello,
I created a custom Dictionary using Dictionary creator GUI tool and the XML file for it is created successfully.
Post that, according to documentation<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CTAKES/Dictionary+Creator+GUI> (first Information box at bottom of page)
I make required change in UmlsLookupAnnotator.xml file for the "DictionaryDescriptor" attribute.
But on running the piper file with Piper-runner tool, the default sno_rx_16ab file is used and not the newly created one.
If I use the '-l' option followed with custom dictionary xml path with piper-runner tool, then the custom dictionary is used for UMLS lookup.
Can someone please help me in getting the solution involving changes to UmlsLookupAnnotator.xml file to work ?
Regards,

Hello James,
were you able to solve this issue?
No, I have not been able to resolve this issue.
Looking at the Dictionary Creator GUI<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CTAKES/Dictionary+Creator+GUI> page you mentioned, I don't see a reference to a UmlsLookupAnnotator.xml file or a "DictionaryDescriptor" attribute.
I did this since on searching for ‘LookupXml’ in cTAKES installation folder, ‘UmlsLookupAnnotator.xml’ file comes up. In that file ‘DictionaryDescriptor’ is the only appropriate descriptor I could find to modify for this purpose.
Taking your reply into consideration, it seems that I was wrong in my assumption.
Have you tried to set the fast dictionary parameter LookupXml to org/apache/ctakes/dictionary/lookup/fast/DictionaryName.xml
(where you replace DictionaryName with whatever you entered in the Dictionary Name field of the DIctionary Creator GUI)?
What is the exact name of the file where I can set “the fast dictionary parameter LookupXml” ?
Thanks a ton for the help.
Regards,

Have you tried to set the fast dictionary parameter *LookupXml* to
org/apache/ctakes/dictionary/lookup/fast/DictionaryName.xml
(where you replace DictionaryName with whatever you entered in the Dictionary
Name field of the DIctionary Creator GUI)?
