Example Usage:
export TWITTER_NLP=./
cat test.1k.txt | python python/ner/extractEntities2.py
note: this takes a minute or so to read in models from files
To include classification, simply add the --classify switch:
cat test.1k.txt | python python/ner/extractEntities2.py --classify
For higher quality, but slower results, optionally include features based on POS and chunk tags (chunk tags require POS)
cat test.1k.txt | python python/ner/extractEntities2.py --classify --pos
cat test.1k.txt | python python/ner/extractEntities2.py --classify --pos --chunk
Also has the ability to include event tags (requires POS):
cat test.1k.txt | python python/ner/extractEntities2.py --classify --pos --event
