Method Detail

buildNerAnnotator

public static NERAnnotator buildNerAnnotator(String nonDefaultConfig,
                                             String viewName)
                                      throws IOException

the viewName will be used as a KEY to instantiate/get the corresponding NER instance

Parameters:

nonDefaultConfig - a file containing non-default parameters for the NER model named by the viewName parameter.

viewName - assign a name to the NER view generated. As shipped, this should be ViewNames.NER_CONLL or ViewNames.NER_ONTONOTES

Returns:

an NERAnnotator with models instantiated according to the values of viewName and the parameters in nonDefaultConfig.

Throws:

IOException
