What is the best way to represent a tree and/or DAG in UIMA? Is
there a "standard" way to represent these structures? I've tried
searching the web, but all I can find is some discussion on the OASIS
list from 2007.
Currently we declare an annotation type with two special features,
children and ancestor, that are arrays of annotations. We then
populate these arrays with the children and ancestor
annotations. Everything works fine, but I wanted to know if there
was a better way, or at least a generally accepted way, of accomplishing this.
Thanks,
