I'm just trying to solve your problem... I think maybe you just copied the text at that link without rearrange the text again. The sentences in the text that you copied, they have form:
Pierre Vinken, 61 years old, will join the board as a nonexecutive director Nov. 29. Mr. Vinken is chairman of Elsevier N.V., <newline> the Dutch publishing group. Rudolph Agnew, 55 years old and former chairman of Consolidated Gold Fields PLC, <newline> was named a director of this British industrial conglomerate. Note the text is separated by new lines, so the text will be having 3 lines, each will be representing a paragraph itself. You must combine the lines by removing the newline first before you can use them as input. Hopefully you get what I mean, and can solve your problem. -- Muhammad Dhito On Mon, Sep 26, 2011 at 11:30 AM, mcsek...@gmail.com <mcsek...@gmail.com> wrote: > I run OpenNLP's SentenceDetector command line too on the example text given > at > http://incubator.apache.org/opennlp/documentation/manual/opennlp.html#tools.sentdetect.detection > > But, it doesnt give the correct output mentioned at that same link, instead > it gives this output: > Pierre Vinken, 61 years old, will join the board as a nonexecutive director > Nov. 29. > Mr. Vinken is chairman of Elsevier N.V., > the Dutch publishing group. > Rudolph Agnew, 55 years old and former chairman of Consolidated Gold Fields > PLC, > was named a director of this British industrial conglomerate. > > It created 5 sentences instead of 3. > > I tried using the Java API of SentenceDetector, and that too gives incorrect > output. > > A friend of mine ran the command line tool and used the Java API in Windows, > and it worked for him. > Hence, I am guessing this could be a Linux specific problem. > > Thanks > Chandra >
