NOpenNLP.Tools

A C# port of Apache OpenNLP 1.9.5 — a machine learning toolkit for natural language processing.

This package is the port of the opennlp-tools module: inference, training, evaluation and the corpus format readers. For the command line tools, install NOpenNLP.Cli instead.

The API reference and guides are at nopennlp.github.io/nopennlp.

Usage

Targets net10.0, net8.0, and netstandard2.0. The only runtime dependency is J2N.

using NOpenNLP.Tools.Tokenize;

var tokens = SimpleTokenizer.INSTANCE.Tokenize("Hello, world!");
// ["Hello", ",", "world", "!"]

Types and members keep their upstream OpenNLP names so that the Java documentation and examples carry over directly, with .NET casing conventions applied (TokenizerME.tokenize becomes TokenizerME.Tokenize).

Models are the ones Apache OpenNLP publishes; this port loads the same binary format:

using NOpenNLP.Tools.Tokenize;

using var stream = File.OpenRead("en-token.bin");
var tokenizer = new TokenizerME(new TokenizerModel(stream));
var tokens = tokenizer.Tokenize("Dr. Smith went to Washington.");

What is included

Included Not yet ported
Tokenization, sentence detection, POS tagging eval tests
Lemmatization, chunking, name finding (NER) Morfologik addon
Language detection, document categorization brat annotator service
Maxent / Perceptron / Naive Bayes inference
Model loading and feature generation
Parsing, entity linking, word vectors
Porter and Snowball stemmers
Corpus format readers and converters
Model training, evaluation, cross validation

Note: the UIMA library (opennlp-uima upstream) will likely never be ported. There is no .NET port of UIMA (which is also not a goal of this project), and there only seems to be some casual and research interest in creating one.

Status

Work in progress. Prerelease versions may make breaking changes as the port works toward a complete 1.9.5.
