Regarding Entity Recognition
Hey,
First of all Congrats for building such a wonderful software. I am very new
to cTAKES so had a very basic question to ask.
My query is Is it possible to identify multiple words as a single entity,
for eg right now knee pain gets identified as 'knee' and 'pain', but is it
possible to get 'knee pain' as single identity. If so what all changes I
have to make to get going.

Hi Ravi,
In the attached LookupDesc_csv_sample.xml, It looks like it is still configured to use DirectLookupInitializerImpl...
<dictionaryRef idRef="DICT_CSV_SAMPLE" />
<lookupInitializer className="org.apache.ctakes.dictionary.lookup.ae.DirectLookupInitializerImpl">
</lookupInitializer>
Try:
<lookupInitializer className="org.apache.ctakes.dictionary.lookup.ae.FirstTokenPermLookupInitializerImpl">
<properties>
<property key="textMetaFields" value="0|1"/>
<property key="maxPermutationLevel" value="7"/>
<property key="windowAnnotations" value="org.apache.ctakes.typesystem.type.textspan.LookupWindowAnnotation"/>
</properties>
</lookupInitializer>
Instead.
> I also wanted to know if this is the only method to use a non-UMLS vocabulary as a dictionary in cTAKES
It should be configurable to use CSV, Lucene, MySQL/HSQLDB, etc. where one can insert their custom vocabulary, and they and also implement custom lookup algorithms if needed.

I believe the changes you are suggesting, are to be made in LookupDesc_csv_sample.xml. I made those changes but still didn't get the required results.

First let me brief you on what configuration I am using. I am using AggregatePlaintextProcessor.xml with DictionaryLookupAnnotar being DictionaryLookupAnnotarCSV.xml which reads dictionary from two files i.e one being the flat dictionary1.csv and another the lucene index one. I have added knee pain as single term in dictionary1.csv (like knee pain| knee pain) but still I am not being to get them as single entity. Am I missing something here?

Hey,
First of all Congrats for building such a wonderful software. I am very new to cTAKES so had a very basic question to ask.
My query is Is it possible to identify multiple words as a single entity, for eg right now knee pain gets identified as 'knee' and 'pain', but is it possible to get 'knee pain' as single identity. If so what all changes I have to make to get going.
