Vijay, thanks. I get a run-time exception when trying to use the stock AE in 3.1.2. (In fact, it was the same one I’d reported to you (and reported here on Mon) before you advised me I’d failed to unzip a collection of jar files into lib.) As noted, the log file ends with no signs of distress, but does report “DEBUG [DataBinder] DataBinder requires binding of required fields []” several times earlier. I went through the MetamorphoSys DB-setup process two months ago, so I cannot remember for sure whether I included SNOMED-CT or not. I don’t see “SNOMED-CT” per se in mmsys.log; is there something else I should look for there, or an easy check in the DB itself?

The dictionary that YTEX ships with has ~1.5 million entries. If that doesn't work, you can also try running the stock cTAKES AggregatePlaintextUMLSProcessor to see if that creates different annotations. HTH, -vj On Fri, May 23, 2014 at 4:58 PM, Lee, Richard A.

I’ve been trying to use the new cTAKES 3.1.2 with ytex, using the AggregatePlaintextUMLSProcessor.xml AE under ctakes-ytex-uima, and so far it’s not been producing the numerous medical annotations (eg DiseaseDisorderMention) that I was getting on the same documents with cTAKES 3.1.1. Attached screenshot will hopefully make this clear. I did use MetamorphoSys to set up the UMLS tables, and then the ytex script to populate its schema, and I now have ytex tables with hundreds of thousands of entries. I’ve upped the logging level in the hopes the log file would provide a clue, and the only thing I’m seeing is a lot of “DEBUG [FirstTokenPermutationImpl] Window size of 8 exceeds the max permutation level of 7.”; that number varies from 8 to 12. Would that explain the problem? If so, how do I fix it? If not, how do I find the problem? Thanks.
