Thanks for your response.
Does opennlp provide a way to create the *.train file based on a body of text
which I provide, or is the *.train file created another way.
Can i use the SentenceDetectME.sentDetect() method without providing a *.train
file?
Yes your first lines should do that:
java.io.FileInputStream ModelIn = new java.io.FileInputStream(ModelPath
+ "en-sent.zip");
opennlp.tools.sentdetect.SentenceModel SentnModel = new
opennlp.tools.sentdetect.SentenceModel(ModelIn);
opennlp.tools.sentdetect.SentenceDetectorME SentenceDetectME = new
opennlp.tools.sentdetect.SentenceDetectorME(SentnModel);
Now you should be able to use the sentence detector with a model
form our website.
Depending on your use case and domain you might need to do the training
yourself.
The train file just contains one sentence per line. This way the line
break is used to indicate the end of a sentence.
