class ChunkTokenizer extends Tokenizer

Tokenizes and flattens extracted NER chunks.

The ChunkTokenizer will split the extracted NER CHUNK type Annotations and will create TOKEN type Annotations. The result is then flattened, resulting in a single array.

For extended examples of usage, see the ChunkTokenizerTestSpec.

Example

val chunkTokenizer = new ChunkTokenizer()

).toDF("text")
val result = pipeline.fit(data).transform(data)

result.selectExpr("entity.result as entity" , "chunk_token.result as chunk_token").show(false)

    Regex patterns that match tokens within a single target.

    Regex patterns that match tokens within a single target. groups identify different sub-tokens. multiple defaults

    Infix patterns must use regex group. Notice each group will result in separate token

    Example:

    import org.apache.spark.ml.Pipeline
    import com.johnsnowlabs.nlp.annotators.Tokenizer
    import com.johnsnowlabs.nlp.DocumentAssembler
    
    val textDf = sqlContext.sparkContext.parallelize(Array("l'une d'un l'un, des l'extrême des l'extreme")).toDF("text")
    val documentAssembler = new DocumentAssembler().setInputCol("text").setOutputCol("sentences")
    val tokenizer = new Tokenizer().setInputCols("sentences").setOutputCol("tokens").setInfixPatterns(Array("([\\p{L}\\w]+'{1})([\\p{L}\\w]+)"))
    new Pipeline().setStages(Array(documentAssembler, tokenizer)).fit(textDf).transform(textDf).select("tokens.result").show(false)

    This will yield: l', une, d', un, l', un, , , des, l', extrême, des, l', extreme

    Pattern to separate from the inside of tokens.

    Pattern to separate from the inside of tokens. takes priority over splitChars.

    This pattern will be applied to the tokens which where extracted with the target pattern previously

    Example:

    import org.apache.spark.ml.Pipeline
    
    import com.johnsnowlabs.nlp.annotators.Tokenizer
    
    import com.johnsnowlabs.nlp.DocumentAssembler
    
    val textDf = sqlContext.sparkContext.parallelize(Array("Tokens in this-text will#be#split on hashtags-and#dashes")).toDF("text")
    
    val documentAssembler = new DocumentAssembler().setInputCol("text").setOutputCol("sentences")
    
    val tokenizer = new Tokenizer().setInputCols("sentences").setOutputCol("tokens").setSplitPattern("-|#")
    
    new Pipeline().setStages(Array(documentAssembler, tokenizer)).fit(textDf).transform(textDf).select("tokens.result").show(false)

    This will yield: Tokens, in, this, text, will, be, split, on, hashtags, and, dashes

    Pattern to grab from text as token candidates.

    Pattern to grab from text as token candidates. (Default: "\\S+")

    Defaults to: "\\S+" which means anything not a space will be matched and considered as a token candidate, This will cause text to be split on on white spaces to yield token candidates.

    This rule will be added to the BREAK_PATTERN varaible, which is used to yield token candidates.

    import org.apache.spark.ml.Pipeline
    import com.johnsnowlabs.nlp.annotators.Tokenizer
    import com.johnsnowlabs.nlp.DocumentAssembler
    
    val textDf = sqlContext.sparkContext.parallelize(Array("I only consider lowercase characters and NOT UPPERCASED and only the numbers 0,1, to 7 as tokens but not 8 or 9")).toDF("text")
    val documentAssembler = new DocumentAssembler().setInputCol("text").setOutputCol("sentences")
    val tokenizer = new Tokenizer().setInputCols("sentences").setOutputCol("tokens").setTargetPattern("a-z-0-7")
    new Pipeline().setStages(Array(documentAssembler, tokenizer)).fit(textDf).transform(textDf).select("tokens.result").show(false)

    This will yield: only, consider, lowercase, characters, and, and, only, the, numbers, 0, 1, to, 7, as, tokens, but, not, or

    Clears out rules and constructs a new rule for every combination of rules provided . The strategy is to catch one token per regex group. User may add its own groups if needs targets to be tokenized separately from the rest
