What is it?
A Scala port of Ve by Kim Ahlström. A linguistic framework for anyone. No degree required.
- Segments Japanese morphemes into “words” via Kuromoji.
- Based on the Java port of Jamie Birch, original Ruby implementation by Kim Ahlström
Usage
First, add the following dependency:
libraryDependencies += "com.megafarad" % "ve-scala-core" % "0.2.1"
Then, pick a parser and use it.
For Japanese:
import com.megafarad.ve_scala.japanese.KuromojiIpadic
val sentence = "お寿司が食べたい。"
val parser = new KuromojiIpadic(sentence)
parser.words.foreach {
word => println(word.word + " -> " + word.partOfSpeech)
}
/*
お -> Prefix
寿司 -> Noun
が -> Postposition
食べたい -> Verb
。 -> Symbol
*/
For English:
import com.megafarad.ve_scala.english.StanfordNLPEn
val sentence = "I want to eat sushi."
val parser = new StanfordNLPEn(sentence)
parser.words.foreach {
word => println(word.word + " -> " + word.partOfSpeech)
}
/*
I -> Pronoun
want -> Verb
to -> Preposition
eat -> Verb
sushi -> Noun
. -> Punctuation
*/
