The org.apache.uima.cas.impl.XmiCasDeserializer
takes an existing CAS that may contain annotations
already. I've used this when pulling annotations
in from serialized CASes in various combinations.

Hello,
depending on your application it might be just as fast if you just have
one CAS and then put it
through your three analysis pipelines, one after another. When you do it
this way your throughput can be just
as high, only the latency goes up.
When you have multiple machines or a cluster you might want to use
UIMA-AS. As far as I know
you can use a parallel step in the flow, which also does the merging for
you.

Hello,
I have a question concerning the merging of different UIMA pipelines. Say I
have 3 different annotators that work on the same document (The CAS sofa data
is identical for each of the pipelines) They do this parallel and all of them
produce different annotations but in a sofa with the same name(_textView).
Finally I have 3 serialized XCAS files in three different folders, coming from
different nodes of a cluster.
Is there an UIMA conform way to merge the corresponding xml files into one CAS
object that has all the annotations of the three separate files? I could easily
do this with a non uima java class that just adds all the annotation
information into one file. Since the sofa data is the same, the offset
information of the annotations will be correct, but I'd rather stay in the UIMA
context.
Cheers,
Alex
