All Implemented Interfaces:

org.apache.uima.analysis_component.AnalysisComponent

public class RegexSegmenter
extends SegmenterBase

This segmenter splits sentences and tokens based on regular expressions that define the sentence and token boundaries.

The default behavior is to split sentences by a line break and tokens by whitespace.

Field Detail

PARAM_TOKEN_BOUNDARY_REGEX

public static final String PARAM_TOKEN_BOUNDARY_REGEX

Defines the pattern that is used as token end boundary.

When setting custom patterns, take into account that the final token is often terminated by a linebreak rather than the boundary character. Therefore, the newline typically has to be added to the group of matching characters, e.g. "tokenized-text" is correctly tokenized with the pattern [-\n].
