Mark Giaconia commented on OPENNLP-602:
---------------------------------------
This is especially important when extracting text from Powerpoints and the
like, where typically bullet points and such do not contain a full stop. I
recommend making it optional (boolean overload, or a setter one can call after
instantiation of the sentencedetectorME), because I have seen situations where
this makes sense, but it's conditional and should be used wisely.
thoughts?
> SentenceDetector should support new line as and end of sentence char

> Key: OPENNLP-602
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENNLP-602
> Project: OpenNLP
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Sentence Detector
> Affects Versions: tools-1.5.3
> Reporter: Joern Kottmann
> Assignee: Joern Kottmann
> Priority: Minor
>
> The Sentence Detector should have support to consider new line chars as the
> end of a sentence. This will probably require special handling in the
> training code to assume that there is an new line char if any other eos is
> missing.
