UIMA [new user]
Hi,
I was looking for a platform that can make me processing files written in
different formats (xml, owl, rdf,...) and extract relevant information. So
i found UIMA.
However, I found only examples for processing natural language.
Is UIMA limited to this, or it can allow me for example extracting classes
or attributes from an a Ecore file?
Thank you for help! I would be happy to find examples of processing more
complex data.

There is also a UIMA add-on annotator which wraps TIKA and enables it to run
inside a UIMA pipeline - perhaps useful if you're going to be combining other
analytics with this.

Hi there,
UIMA does not do out-of-the-box text extraction from various document
formats.
For this task you can use TIKA ( http://tika.apache.org/).
In our project (ATLAS - http://www.atlasproject.eu/) we've developed a
text extraction framework prior UIMA wrapped NLP tools for different
languages. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need more information on
this.
greetings
Diman

UIMA is the Unstructured Information Management Architecture. Its meant to be
used to analyze unstructured information, such as texts, and as a result of the analysis
superimpose structured information on top of it, such as linguistic or semantic categories.
If you need a library to access ecore files, you should probably look at the Eclipse EMF
framework. While UIMA can store analysis results in XMI files, UIMA is not a library to
access and process XMI files in general. Likewise for XML and RDF.
