Asian Sentence Detector Models
Hi all,
I see there aren't Sentence Detect Models for Asian languages in openNLP
repository and I need these ones.
I've to train Sentence Detect Models for Chinese, Japanese and Korean
languages, but I don't know these languages.
How coud I get the data train files for these languages?
Thanks in advance!,
Jairo Sarabia

Doesn't the guy that posted the original question have any sample
texts? I got the idea that he had but does not know the language(s)...

You can. Almost every time we use this symbol to signal the end of a
sentence.
However, sometimes, it can be missing, especially in a dialogue or chatroom.

Would it make sense to make a rule based sentence splitter, which always
splits
on "。" ?

Both languages use a small circle like "。" to signal the end of a sentence.

Hi,
Do Chinese and/or Japanese also use word endings to signal the end of a
sentence or thought; or do they use punctuation.

Don't worry,
Korean at least has patterns to the end of a sentence or really a
thought.... They have specific endings to the words that key an end of
the thought.

I don't know, I never worked with Asian languages,
but it would of course be nice to improve our support in this area.
Especially the basic tasks like sentence detection and
tokenization are of great interest for many.

Jorn,
If there isn't anything for Korean, I could put something together.
Only problem would be getting free text.
I can start looking if needed.

Re: Asian Sentence Detector Models
Posted by Jörn Kottmann <ko...@gmail.com>.
Here is a paper which describes Chinese sentence segmentation:
www.aclweb.org/anthology/P/P11/P11-2111.pdf
There they say that commas can be an end-of-sentence marker as well,
but they are ambiguous.
So we would need to add it as an eos char and
we should create a new feature generator.
Are there any free training data sets which could be used?

Wikipedia says: "Languages like Japanese and Chinese have unambiguous
sentence-ending markers."
In this case we might be able to write a rule based sentence detector for
these languages?

Hi
There is a Thai model for sentence detector. I don't know who created it,
but someone from the list knows and can point to some article about it.
What I can say is that OpenNLP had to be customized to work with Thai,
including the EOS Characters that are ' ' and '\n'
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/opennlp/trunk/opennlp-tools/src/main/java/opennlp/tools/sentdetect/lang/th/SentenceContextGenerator.java?view=markup

Basically you need to know the punctuation signs indicating end of
sentence or find someone who does...then use regex to split the
sentences at those signs! it's not gonna be perfect - you may have to
pass it once or twice with your own eyes to make sure everything is ok
before training. everything depends on the language and how ambiguous
punctuation it has.

Jim,
I know Korean and they don't use punctuation like Europeans do. It is a
different set of rules.

To train a sentence detector, simply provide a training file that
includes one sentence per line. I'm not sure if these languages use "."
to indicate end of sentence...if they do you can do it without knowing
the language.
