public interface Synthesizer

Part-of-speech synthesizer interface. Implementations are heavily language-dependent.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
String	getPosTagCorrection(String posTag)	Gets a corrected version of the POS tag used for synthesis.
String	getSpelledNumber(String arabicNumeral)	Spells out a number
String[]	synthesize(AnalyzedToken token, String posTag)	Generates a form of the word with a given POS tag for a given lemma.
String[]	synthesize(AnalyzedToken token, String posTag, boolean posTagRegExp)	Generates a form of the word with a given POS tag for a given lemma.

Method Details

synthesize

String[] synthesize(AnalyzedToken token,
 String posTag)
             throws IOException

Generates a form of the word with a given POS tag for a given lemma.

Parameters:

token - the token to be used for synthesis

posTag - POS tag of the form to be generated

Throws:

IOException

synthesize

String[] synthesize(AnalyzedToken token,
 String posTag,
 boolean posTagRegExp)
             throws IOException

Generates a form of the word with a given POS tag for a given lemma. POS tag can be specified using regular expressions.

Parameters:

token - the token to be used for synthesis

posTag - POS tag of the form to be generated

posTagRegExp - Specifies whether the posTag string is a regular expression.

Throws:

IOException

getPosTagCorrection

String getPosTagCorrection(String posTag)

Gets a corrected version of the POS tag used for synthesis. Useful when the tagset defines special disjunction that need to be converted into regexp disjunctions.

Parameters:

posTag - original POS tag to correct

Returns:

converted POS tag

getSpelledNumber

String getSpelledNumber(String arabicNumeral)

Spells out a number

Parameters:

arabicNumeral - in arabic numerals

Returns:

String of the spelled out number
