             Summary: problem in detecting a family memeber
                 Key: CTAKES-390
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CTAKES-390
             Project: cTAKES
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ctakes-assertion
    Affects Versions: 3.2.2
            Reporter: alina shapira


when parsing a sentence including a family member, the family member not detected  if it does not appear as the first word in the sentence.

so in "dad ha diabetes" the subject is found to be a family member
but in "his dad has diabetes" the subject is the patient himself.


looks related to the  SubjectAttributeClassifier class
in function  isFamilyTerm(Annotation arg) 
need to change the matches statement so that the family keyword may appear not as a first word:

   .matches(".*(father|dad|mother|mom|bro|sis|sib|cousin|aunt|uncle|grandm|grandp|grandf|"    "wife|spouse|husband|child|offspring|progeny|son|daughter|nephew|niece|kin|family).*");
