guokr/stan-cn-ner

A Chinese naming entity recognization package in stan-cn-* family

stan-cn-ner

stan-cn-* family are wrappers based on Stanford CoreNLP for the convenience of Chinese users. This package provide a Chinese naming entity recognizor.

stan-cn-* family are including:

• stan-cn-com: Common code base
• stan-cn-seg: Chinese segmentation and related data model
• stan-cn-ner: Naming entity recognization and related data model
• stan-cn-tag: POS tagging and related data model

Purpose of the package

The original Stanford CoreNLP packages with default language settings in Maven central is only for English. If you are dealing with simplified Chinese, you still need to download the Chinese model and fix some configuration files.

The burden is not too much, but if you deploy these packages to a server cluster, this burden might be amplified.

Whatever you face a single node or a server farm, it would be a pleasurable solution to provide packages with default settings of Chinese language models. That is what we do.

Comments, reviews, bug reports and patches are welcomed.
