Giuseppe Totaro commented on TIKA-1642:
---------------------------------------
Hi [~selina], I believe that is a great idea. I am going right now to update my
code on GitHub and add support for cTAKES metadata as suggested by you.
Then, I will post here a new patch for Tika.
Thanks a lot,
Giuseppe
> Integrate cTAKES into Tika
> --------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-1642
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1642
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: parser
> Reporter: Selina Chu
>
> [~gostep] has written a preliminary version of
> [CTAKESContentHandler|https://github.com/giuseppetotaro/CTAKESContentHadler]
> to integrate [Apache cTAKES|http://ctakes.apache.org/] into Tika.
> The CTAKESContentHandler allows to perform the following step into Tika:
> * create an AnalysisEngine based on a given XML descriptor;
> * create a CAS (Common Analysis System) appropriate for this AnalysisEngine;
> * populate the CAS with the text extracted by using Tika;
> * perform the AnalysisEngine against the plain text added to CAS;
> * write out the results in the given format (XML, XCAS, XMI, etc.).
> It would be great improvement if we can parse the output of cTAKES and create
> a list of metadata which describes the terms found in the annotation index
> and their corresponding tokens. For instance, using the
> AggregatePlaintextFastUMLSProcessor analysis engine, we can utilize the UMLS
> database to obtain the annotations related to DiseaseDisorderMention, and I
> would like to be able to produce a list of words corresponding to the input
> text which is annotated as DiseaseDisorderMention.
