I meant to use lingpipe to handle Chinese English Learners Corpus (http://www.clal.org.cn/corpus/EngSearchEngine.aspx). The results were very disappointing....
Hello, I used the classification functionality to detect sentiment as described in LingPipe tutorials. I haven't tried this yet, but just like I can train and...
Hi Bob, ... What does n-best mean in this context? Does it simply mean that the library will be able to return N possible entities ordered by their ...
Indeed. You can also do it to spot topics. We're using it to disambiguate genes by looking at the context. I'm going to write a tutorial in the next month for...
... I hope this answer isn't more confusing than the first go round. Sorry for any smoke it causes in your brain. That's what I'm calling confidence-based...
Can anyone explain to me benefit of using a character-based NGram tokenizer for the DynamicLMClassifier's language model over a word-based one? I notice that...
... In almost all of our large-scale experiments, character-based models have outperformed token-based classifiers. And they're easier to use, which is why...
Bob- Thank you for the clear and thoughtful response. I suppose it was just intuitive to me that a word-based language model would be much better at...
... I spent a few years in the speech recognition world, and the answer is that most large-vocabulary unconstrained dictation systems use word-level language...
Does any of the classification algorithms implemented in LingPipe allows for multilabel categories (that is allows overlaping categories)? Regards! Eduard ......
... Not directly. The best we can offer out of the box is running a whole bunch of one-vs-all classifiers. This is fine if the classes are independent. If the...
I have just come across lingpipe and still understanding it's great potential. It would be extremely useful for one of the projects I am working on. I wanted...
We don't have any models for French in particular, but there should be no character set issues if you want to process French. If you want to detect named...
Please let us know what you think about assuming JDK 1.5 for LingPipe 3.0 and beyond. Here's a quick roadmap: Sun JDK 1.6 In ... Sun just released the 1.6 JDK...
Hi all, I think it is a good idea to migrate to J.D.K 1.5 [you will have some work to do with generics but I think it is worth the effort!] As a feature, I...
Alias-i is pleased to announce the availability of LingPipe 2.2.0. Check it out at: http://www.alias-i.com/lingpipe Cribbing from the new home page: NEW...

... The issue is compatibility. The 1.5 release is a major change in the underlying language. And while not everyone may be a type-safety freak like me, I'm...
I'm working on a classifier and I've found that using DynamicLMClassifier, my accuracy seems to consistently go up when both increasing the ngrams and the...
Q1: can you train LMs on lots of data? A1: Yes, with pruning. Q2: Will classification accuracy keep going up with more data? A2: Almost always for natural...
Bob, Thanks so much for the very quick response! The pruning does indeed seem to make some difference, at least with the quick tests that I've run using it....
We needed to fix two serious bugs, so we just released 2.2.1. It's otherwise almost identical to 2.2.0. The first of these was so that the new util.FastCache ...
Hi, I am trying to use LingPipe for some natural language processing applications that I am working on, and it looks excellent! I would like to get it working...
The "Unsupported major.minor version 49.0" bug arises when you try to load classes in a Java 1.4 installation that were compiled under 1.5. There are multiple...
