Chris A. Mattmann commented on TIKA-1642:
-----------------------------------------
Sorry Nick was going to reformat this once I committed it (I have the code
formatting in Eclipse, but committed this from the command line), but honestly
forgot. RE: the unit tests, yes, need to do so on this, but ran into some
trickiness with the classpath(s). Unit tests are a future improvement here
probably made easier when this becomes an ExternalParser.
> 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
> Assignee: Chris A. Mattmann
> Fix For: 1.9
>
>
> [~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.
