Morphology Pre-annotation Tool

My Tool does one thing, and one thing well.

In order to ease manually tagging our texts for the gold corpus, a pre-annotation tool which takes into account existing annotated texts has been designed. This tool fills in unambiguous fields for each word and propose alternatives in columns following the CDLI-CoNLL columns for the user to copy and paste the best choice.

Installation

If you don't use pip, you're missing out. Here are installation instructions.

Simply run:

    $ git clone https://github.com/cdli-gh/morphology-pre-annotation-tool.git
    $ cd morphology-pre-annotation-tool
    $ pip install .

Or you can just do

$ pip install git+git://github.com/cdli-gh/morphology-pre-annotation-tool.git

Or you can also do

$ pip install git+https://github.com/cdli-gh/morphology-pre-annotation-tool.git   

Upgrading

If you already have installed it and want to upgrade the tool:

    $ cd morphology-pre-annotation-tool
    $ git pull origin master
    $ pip install . --upgrade

Or you can just do

$ pip install git+git://github.com/cdli-gh/morphology-pre-annotation-tool.git --upgrade

Or you can also do

$ pip install git+https://github.com/cdli-gh/morphology-pre-annotation-tool.git --upgrade

Usage

To use it:

$ mpat --help

To run it on file:

$ mpat -i ./resources/P115087.conll

To run it on folder:

$ mpat -i ./resources

The default behaviour is the annotation, so if you just input the path, it will run annotator. To do custom following tasks, use their corresponding flags.

To just run the formattor to format the conll files for next Conll-U convertor, use the --format_conll/-f switch:

$ mpat -f -i ./resources

To just feed the dictionary with an annotated file, use the --no_output/-n switch to produce no annotated outputs:

$ mpat -n -i ./resources

To just check the format of conll tool, use the --check/-c switch:

$ mpat -c -i ./resources

Note that checker does not output any file, nor it changes the state of the files.

To delete the stored dictionary, use the --delete_dict/-d switch:

$ mpat -d

To see the console messages of the tool, use --verbose/-v switch:

$ mpat -i ./resources  -v

If you don't give arguments, it will prompt for the path.

The annotated dictionary is stored as [json] in the home folder of the user which runs Python (will be root if you installed Python at the system level)

(./cdli_mpa_tool/annotated_morph_dict.json) and it gets updated every time, so you can copy it from the path and share it.

Its structure is (FORM: [ {"annotation" : [SEGM1 XPOSTAG1], "count" : COUNT1} , {"annotation" : [SEGM2 XPOSTAG2], "count" : COUNT2} ]):

{
  "pisan-dub-ba": [
    { "annotation" : ["bisajdubak", "N"],
      "count" : 1
    }
  ],
  "hu-hu-nu-ri{ki}": []
}
