Synopsis

Reads documents and annotations in the BioNLP-ST 2013 a1/a2 format .

Description

BioNLPSTReader reads text files in the directory specified by textDir as documents, then imports annotations in the corresponding files in the directories specified by a1Dir and a2Dir .

Mandatory parameters

textDir

Path to the directory containing .txt files.

Optional parameters

a1Dir

Path to the directory containing .a1 files. If this parameter is not set, then BioNLPSTReader does not read a1 files. This directory must contain one .a1 file for each .txt file found in textDir .

📋

<a1Dir>/path/to/a1/</a1Dir>

a2Dir

Path to the directory containing .a2 files. If this parameter is not set, then BioNLPSTReader does not read a2 files. This directory must contain one .a2 file for each .txt file found in textDir .

constantAnnotationFeatures

Constant features to add to each annotation created by this module.

constantDocumentFeatures

Constant features to add to each document created by this module.

constantRelationFeatures

Constant features to add to each relation created by this module.

constantSectionFeatures

Constant features to add to each section created by this module.

constantTupleFeatures

Constant features to add to each tuple created by this module.

schema

Annotation schema against which the annotations are checked. BioNLPSTReader aborts if the annotations do not check. If not set, the annotations are not checked.
