Joern Kottmann closed OPENNLP-333.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
As said, this it not an issue with the OpenNLP name finder implementation.
> NameFinderME not working for single name at beginning of sentence
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: OPENNLP-333
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENNLP-333
> Project: OpenNLP
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Name Finder
> Affects Versions: tools-1.5.1-incubating
> Reporter: Josh Smith
>
> For sentences that begin with a single name (ie first/last name only),
> NameFinderME returns an empty array of Spans. If the second word is also part
> of the name, the Span is returned properly. If the sentence is reversed such
> that the name is last, the Span is returned correctly.
> For example,
> "John is my name" -> []
> "John Doe is my name" -> [0..2]
> "My name is John" -> [3..4]
