Information request about UIMA type

[Alessandro Rossi <be...@gmail.com>]

Hi to all,

I would like to have some information

1) There exists any methods to define regex on UIMA type (not for simple
text) ?

2) There exists any way to do unification and subsumption on UIMA type?

Thanks.

Bye

Hello,

I don't know if this is what you are looking for, but there is the 
TextMarker system developed by us: 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/textmarker/

However, disjunctions with additional feature conditions aren't 
supported. Using a helper-type your exemplary expression could look 
something like this in the TextMarker language:

DECLARE Vehicle;
Car{FEATURE("color", "blue") -> MARK(Vehicle)};
Bus{FEATURE("seat_num", 30) -> MARK(Vehicle)};
Vehicle*{-> MARK(Traffic)};

Hi Thilo,

I and some friend are try to develop an extension of UIMA that allow users
to obtain automatically (in a way similar to JCas Gen)  an analysis engine
based on regular expression over feature structure (UIMA type).

I try to explain with an example :

In my type system descriptor I define three type of annotation :

1) Car with features color:string and model:string

2) Bus with features color:string and seat_number:integer

3) Traffic with some other feature

I would obtain an analysis engine that match with the left hand side regexp
add a new annotation as described in the right hand side

(<Car color=blue> | <Bus seat_num=30> )* --> Traffic

I hope this example explain better what I'm trying to implement(something
similar to JAPE for GATE ).

Thanks

Please be more explicit, not clear what you mean.

Short answer: no.  Long answer: subsumption is easy, you can implement
that in a couple of hours.  Unification is more difficult.  If you
want to do it yourself, we can discuss where the major issues are.
