JATE

JATE (Java Automatic Term Extraction) is an open source library for automatic domain specific term extraction from text corpora. It is implemented within the Apache Solr framework (currently Solr 5.3), currently supporting more than 10 ATE algorithms, and almost any kinds of term candidate patterns. The seamless integration with Solr gives JATE potential to be easily customised and adapted to different documents (including binary), domains, and languages.

For details of how to use JATE2, please follow the wiki on the JATE website.

General introduction of JATE is also available in JATE1.0 wiki.
