| Chunking uses a special regexp syntax for rules that delimit the chunks. These
|
| rules must be converted to 'regular' regular expressions before a sentence can
|
| be chunked.

|
| ChunkParserI
|
| ------------
|
| `ChunkParserI` is an abstract interface -- it is not meant to be
|
| instantiated directly.
|
|
|
| >>> ChunkParserI().parse([])
|
| Traceback (most recent call last):
|
| . . .
|
| NotImplementedError
|
|
|
|
|
| ChunkString
|
| -----------
|
| ChunkString can be built from a tree of tagged tuples, a tree of
|
| trees, or a mixed list of both:
|
|
|
| >>> t1 = Tree('S', [('w%d' % i, 't%d' % i) for i in range(10)])
|
| >>> t2 = Tree('S', [Tree('t0', []), Tree('t1', ['c1'])])
|
| >>> t3 = Tree('S', [('w0', 't0'), Tree('t1', ['c1'])])
|
| >>> ChunkString(t1)
|
| <ChunkString: '<t0><t1><t2><t3><t4><t5><t6><t7><t8><t9>'>
|
| >>> ChunkString(t2)
|
| <ChunkString: '<t0><t1>'>
|
| >>> ChunkString(t3)
|
| <ChunkString: '<t0><t1>'>
|
|
|
| Other values generate an error:
|
|
|
| >>> ChunkString(Tree('S', ['x']))
|
| Traceback (most recent call last):
|
| . . .
|
| ValueError: chunk structures must contain tagged tokens or trees
|
|
|
| The `str()` for a chunk string adds spaces to it, which makes it line
|
| up with `str()` output for other chunk strings over the same
|
| underlying input.
|
|
|
| >>> cs = ChunkString(t1)
|
| >>> print(cs)
|
| <t0> <t1> <t2> <t3> <t4> <t5> <t6> <t7> <t8> <t9>
|
| >>> cs.xform('<t3>', '{<t3>}')
|
| >>> print(cs)
|
| <t0> <t1> <t2> {<t3>} <t4> <t5> <t6> <t7> <t8> <t9>
|
|
|
| The `_verify()` method makes sure that our transforms don't corrupt
|
| the chunk string. By setting debug_level=2, `_verify()` will be
|
| called at the end of every call to `xform`.
|
|
|
| >>> cs = ChunkString(t1, debug_level=3)
|
|
|
| >>> # tag not marked with <...>:
|
| >>> cs.xform('<t3>', 't3')
|
| Traceback (most recent call last):
|
| . . .
|
| ValueError: Transformation generated invalid chunkstring:
|
| <t0><t1><t2>t3<t4><t5><t6><t7><t8><t9>
|
|
|
| >>> # brackets not balanced:

| >>> cs.xform('<t3>', '{<t3>')
|
| Traceback (most recent call last):

| <t0><t1><t2>{<t3><t4><t5><t6><t7><t8><t9>

|
| Traceback (most recent call last):

|
| Traceback (most recent call last):

|
| Chunking Rules
|
| --------------
|
|
|
| Test the different rule constructors & __repr__ methods:
|
|
|
| >>> r1 = RegexpChunkRule('<a|b>'+ChunkString.IN_STRIP_PATTERN,
|
| ... '{<a|b>}', 'chunk <a> and <b>')
|
| >>> r2 = RegexpChunkRule(re.compile('<a|b>'+ChunkString.IN_STRIP_PATTERN),
|
| ... '{<a|b>}', 'chunk <a> and <b>')
|
| >>> r3 = ChunkRule('<a|b>', 'chunk <a> and <b>')
|
| >>> r4 = StripRule('<a|b>', 'strip <a> and <b>')
|
| >>> r5 = UnChunkRule('<a|b>', 'unchunk <a> and <b>')
|
| >>> r6 = MergeRule('<a>', '<b>', 'merge <a> w/ <b>')
|
| >>> r7 = SplitRule('<a>', '<b>', 'split <a> from <b>')
|
| >>> r8 = ExpandLeftRule('<a>', '<b>', 'expand left <a> <b>')
|
| >>> r9 = ExpandRightRule('<a>', '<b>', 'expand right <a> <b>')
|
| >>> for rule in r1, r2, r3, r4, r5, r6, r7, r8, r9:
|
| ... print(rule)
|
| <RegexpChunkRule: '<a|b>(?=[^\\}]*(\\{|$))'->'{<a|b>}'>
|
| <RegexpChunkRule: '<a|b>(?=[^\\}]*(\\{|$))'->'{<a|b>}'>
|
| <ChunkRule: '<a|b>'>
|
| <StripRule: '<a|b>'>
|

|
| <MergeRule: '<a>', '<b>'>
|
| <SplitRule: '<a>', '<b>'>
|
| <ExpandLeftRule: '<a>', '<b>'>
|
| <ExpandRightRule: '<a>', '<b>'>
|
|
|
| `tag_pattern2re_pattern()` complains if the tag pattern looks problematic:
|
|
|
| >>> tag_pattern2re_pattern('{}')
|
| Traceback (most recent call last):
|
| . . .
|
| ValueError: Bad tag pattern: '{}'
