xml data format instead of plain text file during train, test & validation

[ashikrafi]

Dear Team,

Thank you very much for NeuroNER. You guys have done some tremendous work. Thank you.

However, I have been working on NeuroNER. Instead of plain text file, I have got xml data source for training, testing and validation.Can you please me how to use xml data?

Thank you

You would need to parse the xml data and dump into text file in the format as mentioned in https://github.com/Franck-Dernoncourt/NeuroNER#adding-a-new-dataset

For parsing the xml, you can follow the instructions mentioned here: https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/xml.etree.elementtree.html#parsing-xml
