NGrams

Synopsis

Computes annotation n-grams.

Description

NGrams computes the n-grams of annotations in tokenLayer and creates an annotation for each n-gram. If sentenceLayer is set, then no n-gram will cross boundaries of annotations in this layer. If keepAnnotations is set, then NGrams will search for annotations with n-gram boundaries in these layers, if one annotation is found then it is recycled instead of creating a new annotation.
