Hello! I've got another maybe not so good idea. Why not pass an aggregate analysis engine as a parameter? First, build an aggregate analysis engine the usual way. Second, serialize it to an XML-string. Third, pass that string to the SegmentProcessingAE as String parameter together with another parameter denoting the segment types. Fourth, deserialize the aggregate engine. Last, Iterate over all mentions of the segment type and process each segment with the aggregate engine. Does this work?
What do you think? Armin -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Oliver Christ [mailto:ochr...@ebsco.com] Gesendet: Freitag, 20.

It seems that Petr's approach does address the general case though: if some AE doesn't support "zones", create a new view containing just the content you want to have processed, and run the AE on that view.

If I get it right, the ability for restricting processing to mentions of given types is inherited from a base class. So every analysis engine that should do this, must inherit from that base clase. Sure, that's one way of doing it. But it's part of the analysis engine. Thanks, Armin -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Oliver Christ [mailto:ochr...@ebsco.com] Gesendet: Dienstag, 17.

It allows you to specify that segmentation should occur within "zones", defined by some other annotation type. https://code.google.com/p/dkpro-core-asl/source/browse/de.tudarmstadt.ukp.dkpro.core-asl/trunk/de.tudarmstadt.ukp.dkpro.core.api.segmentation-asl/src/main/java/de/tudarmstadt/ukp/dkpro/core/api/segmentation/SegmenterBase.java Usage: pipeline.add(createEngineDescription(BreakIteratorSegmenter.class, BreakIteratorSegmenter.PARAM_ZONE_TYPES, new String[] { MyZoneAnnotation.class.getName() })); Cheers, Oli -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Ginter [mailto:thomas.gin...@utah.edu] Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2014 2:20 PM To: user@uima.apache.org Subject: Re: Restricting a aggregate engine to a substring or mention We do this by having a parameter for some of our standard annotators, like our RegexAnnotator, that allows the user to specify an annotation type. If a type is specified then the operations of the annotator are restricted to the covered text of the annotation type instances specified. If no annotation type is provided then the entire document is assumed. In that way we can have annotators that perform some logic to find the regions of interest and then the subsequent annotators only operate on those regions.
