This is what I did : I am based on the uima default FileSystemCollectionReader descriptor that I call using ResourceSpecifier colReaderSpecifier = UIMAFramework.getXMLParser().parseCollectionReaderDescription(new XMLInputSource("desc/FileSystemCollectionReader.xml")); CollectionReader collectionReader = UIMAFramework.produceCollectionReader(colReaderSpecifier); Then I developed 4 analysis engines that I call like this ((BaseCPMImpl) mCPM).addCasProcessor(ae1); ((BaseCPMImpl) mCPM).addCasProcessor(ae2); ((BaseCPMImpl) mCPM).addCasProcessor(ae3); ((BaseCPMImpl) mCPM).addCasProcessor(ae4); the problem is that I want to give the user the option to tell the collection reader the folder he want to use containing the documents to be analyzed so i used this method after producing the collection reader ConfigurationParameterSettings settings = collectionReader.getMetaData().getConfigurationParameterSettings(); org.apache.uima.reso</pre> Radwen ANIBA 2010-02-05T10:53:35 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.uima.general/2696 <pre>Hello, I have devoloped a serie of AEs that I tested through CPE GUI,and now I'm trying to write a java aplication using these AEs and trying to do th same thing as CPE GUI.

It might make parsing XMI XML easier.

I couldn't find much information about it in the Async Scaleout docs. It was briefly mentioned as a configuration option, but not described. Is this the same format that is used to serialize to C++? If not, where can I find more information? Must the recipient re-constitute the CAS, or is it self-describing like XML and could be handled by a non-UIMA recipient?

Jörn </pre> Jörn Kottmann 2010-01-29T09:26:54 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.uima.general/2657 <pre>The Apache UIMA development community is pleased to announce the release of version 2.3.0 of UIMA (Unstructured Information Management Architecture). Apache UIMA is a framework supporting combining and reusing components that annotate unstructured information content such as text, audio, and video. This release consists of 4 packages: - UIMA Java SDK - the base framework, with development tools and examples - UIMA-AS (Asynchronous Scalout capability) - UIMACPP (c++ support framework, for components written in c++ and other languages) - UIMA Addons - a growing set of annotators and other tools. This release is generally backwards compatable with previous releases, except that Java 5 is now the minimum Java level required. The add-ons package contains many new components and annotators, including: - Bean Scripting Framework supporting annotators written in popular scripting languages - Lucas - an interface to using UIMA with Apache Lucene - TikaAnnotator - an annotator using the Apache Tika pro</pre> Marshall Schor 2010-01-28T22:58:21 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.uima.general/2653 <pre>Hi I'm trying to change a parameter in an AE and then to call the CPE that uses this AE but the changes are not made despite the fact that I don't have errors.

I've set a mandatory parameter in the descriptor but it will depend on the final user choice and would like to let him specify (through the main class) a value that will replace the default parameter. How can we do this programmatically ?

I want to share a new parameter with all annotators of all analysis engines inside an aggregated analysis engine. This should be done programmatically. The problem is, that aggregated analysis engines can only overwrite existing parameters. Is there any chance to bypass this? I tried to directly add a ConfigurationParameter to ConfigurationParameterDeclaration of the aggregated analysis engine, but that doesn't seem to work (as no new parameters are allowed for the above reason). Best regards, Kai </pre> Kai Schlamp 2010-01-28T12:35:58 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.uima.general/2641 <pre>Hello. In my application the analysis engine parameters can only be set programmatically. This is normally done after the analysis engine is produced. After setting the parameters it is reconfigured. So far so good. The problem is now that one specific analysis engine throws an exception when it is produced as it contains by default some invalid parameters. Is there a way to specify the parameters of an analysis engine before it is produced?

The profiler tells me that over 80% of the execution time was spent on the about 200 calls of the method CASImpl.createFilteredIterator(). These 80% are sometimes more than 1000s for one AE.process() and there is a lot more moving on the index going on within those 20%. I can't investigate the cause for this performace hot spot any further, also because I am missing the source plugins for UIMA runtime plugin. The application is running within Eclipse. My first question: Is there an easy way to get/create a source plugin for the UIMA core/runtime? At best without using maven? Any best practices for profiling UIMA in Eclipse? My second question: Is that a normal behavior or can anyone give me a hint how I could increase the performance? Some exemplary information about the usage of the method: The CAS contains about 40 pages of plain text with about 50 lines per page. Part of the text (maybe 3 pages) is annotated and for each line </pre> Peter Klügl 2010-01-27T12:37:30 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.uima.general/2635 <pre>Hello, If you are in or near New York City on Feb 24, 2010, you may want to come to the UIMA presentation by Dr. Pablo Duboue (he's a subscriber here): http://www.meetup.com/NYC-Search-and-Discovery/calendar/12384559/ This is an "excerpt from the blurb" about Pablo's talk: In this talk, I will briefly present UIMA basics before discussing full UIMA systems I have been involved in the past (including our Expert Search system in TREC Enterprise Track 2007). I will be talking about how UIMA supported the construction of our custom NLP tools. I will also sketch the new characteristics of the UIMA Asynchronous Scaleout (UIMA AS) subproject that enable UIMA to run Analysis Engines in thousands of machines.

Is it possible to highlight a rectangular region of text which have co-ordinates x0, y0, x1, y1 which might span multiple lines (y0-y1) but x0-x1 denotes only part of the text whole line text?
