Hi,
I am looking for a tool to compare UIMA annotations, e.g., between
different views. Such a tool might be used as a "CASDiff", i.e. the
differences between annotations might be added as special
diff-annotation to the CAS so that they can be visualized in a viewer.
I know that there is a tool by the University of Magdeburg. However, I
didn't have the chance to take a closer look at this tool.
Did anybody else develop such a tool already ?
Thanks
Katrin
Hm, not exactly this, but something similar. We have various forms
of a technology that will compare annotations in various CASes. This
is useful if, for example, you run some analysis and save the results.
Then you modify you analysis and want to see what difference this made
when run on your sample text. Not sure this is what you want.
The basic comparison is fairly simple (if the type system is constant),
displaying the differences in a meaningful way is the real challenge.
We're accepting contributions to the CVD :-)
Come to think of it, doesn't the CAS Viewer do something like this?
Tong?
