Method Detail

synthesize

String[] synthesize(AnalyzedToken token,
                    String posTag)
                    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:

@String Converted POS tag.
