RubyConf: Natural language generation and processing in Ruby
Posted by Nick Sieger Sun, 22 Oct 2006 00:07:34 GMT
Speaker: Michael Granger
Michael’s talk was full of excellend pre-recorded video demos, and thus was difficult to note-take. Instead, here are links to most of the pieces of software he discussed for your perusal:
- Stemmable -- implementation of Porter stemming algorithm
- rubyreuters -- text categorizer using Reuters corpus
- Chronic -- natural language date-time parser in pure Ruby
- Ruby-WordNet -- ruby interface to WordNet lexical dictionary
- Ruby-LinkParser -- binding to the Link Grammar library (from Carnegie Mellon)
- Sentence alignment and concordance tools by UTIYAMA Masao
- Ruby-Linguistics -- framework for linguistic utilities for Ruby objects in any language, by Michael, sports WordNet and LinkParser integration
Can you please suggest resources, docs etc for segmenting a text into senetences? I would prefer a Ruby implementation, thanks a lot in advance.
