nltk.corpus.reader.chasen module

class nltk.corpus.reader.chasen.ChasenCorpusReader

Bases: CorpusReader

__init__(root, fileids, encoding='utf8', sent_splitter=None)

Parameters

• root (PathPointer or str) – A path pointer identifying the root directory for this corpus. If a string is specified, then it will be converted to a PathPointer automatically.

• fileids – A list of the files that make up this corpus. This list can either be specified explicitly, as a list of strings; or implicitly, as a regular expression over file paths. The absolute path for each file will be constructed by joining the reader’s root to each file name.

• encoding –

  The default unicode encoding for the files that make up the corpus. The value of encoding can be any of the following:

  • A string: encoding is the encoding name for all files.

  • A dictionary: encoding[file_id] is the encoding name for the file whose identifier is file_id. If file_id is not in encoding, then the file contents will be processed using non-unicode byte strings.

  • A list: encoding should be a list of (regexp, encoding) tuples. The encoding for a file whose identifier is file_id will be the encoding value for the first tuple whose regexp matches the file_id. If no tuple’s regexp matches the file_id, the file contents will be processed using non-unicode byte strings.

  • None: the file contents of all files will be processed using non-unicode byte strings.

• tagset – The name of the tagset used by this corpus, to be used for normalizing or converting the POS tags returned by the tagged_...() methods.

class nltk.corpus.reader.chasen.ChasenCorpusView

Bases: StreamBackedCorpusView

A specialized corpus view for ChasenReader. Similar to TaggedCorpusView, but this’ll use fixed sets of word and sentence tokenizer.

__init__(corpus_file, encoding, tagged, group_by_sent, group_by_para, sent_splitter=None)

Create a new corpus view, based on the file fileid, and read with block_reader. See the class documentation for more information.

Parameters

• fileid – The path to the file that is read by this corpus view. fileid can either be a string or a PathPointer.

• startpos – The file position at which the view will start reading. This can be used to skip over preface sections.

• encoding – The unicode encoding that should be used to read the file’s contents. If no encoding is specified, then the file’s contents will be read as a non-unicode string (i.e., a str).

read_block(stream)

Reads one paragraph at a time.
