Hello,
The point is that the MARK action simply creates an annotation without any
features. Reading your code, it seems that you expect the matched value to be
held in the « value » feature. This is not the case.
You can access to the text that is covered by an annotation through the
pseudo-feature « .ct » (as coveredText).
Thus I guess the following rule should do what you want (not tested) :
Document{-> CREATE(INTENT, "value" =
"Apply_for_Card")}<-{e:ENTITY{e.ct=="card"} # a:ACTIONS{a.ct=="application"};}*
;}*
But I guess that you will want to capture variations, such as plurals
(card/cards) or even derivation (apply/application).
Then you should have a look at MARKTABLE action, which will take as a resource
a CSV file with the text to be matched in the input document and as many
features as you want to be created on the annotation. Thus you could describe
dictionary entries with your variations, all of them mapping to a normalized
value.
Keep trying, Ruta is a little bit tricky at start, but it’s worth the effort.
