conll.el
conll.el
is a named entity recognition annotator for Emacs that I
wrote during my PhD. It is very simplistic and designed for annotation
speed.
Quite simply, conll.el
starts with a CoNLL-2002 file. These are
2-columns files, where the second column is used to tag entities:
... Over O the O main O entrance O the O words O , O CENTRAL B-ORG LONDON I-ORG HATCHERY I-ORG AND I-ORG CONDITIONING I-ORG CENTRE I-ORG ...
conll.el
tries to cut these texts into sentences, and present
these sentences to the user one by one. One can navigate between
sentences with p
and n
, and mark tokens as entities with a
or
c
. This highlights the tokens with the color corresponding to the
chosen entity type. And that's (almost) all there is to it!
