Constructor Summary

ConversionDictionary()
create a new conversion dictionary to store masking information sorted by POS classes

Method Summary

void	addEntry(java.lang.String pos, java.lang.String orth, java.lang.String conv) add a new entry (= the information from one leaf)
java.lang.String	getConv(java.lang.String pos, java.lang.String orth) retrieve the replace token for an original token
java.util.HashMap<java.lang.String,java.util.HashMap<java.lang.String,java.lang.String>>	getMap() used by the morphology analyzer to get more direct access to the dictionary
static ConversionDictionary	read(java.io.File keyFile) read a dictionary from a file as generated by writeToFile()
static ConversionDictionary	readReverse(java.io.File keyFile) read a dictionary in reverse from a file as generated by writeToFile() dictionary is then in the correct format to be used for demasking

                     java.lang.String conv)

add a new entry (= the information from one leaf)

Parameters:

pos - - the new entry's POS class

pos - - the new entry's original version

conv - - the new entry's masked version

getConv

public java.lang.String getConv(java.lang.String pos,
                                java.lang.String orth)

retrieve the replace token for an original token

Parameters:

pos - - the token's POS class

orth - - the token

Returns:

- the masked version of the token from the dictionary

getMap

public java.util.HashMap<java.lang.String,java.util.HashMap<java.lang.String,java.lang.String>> getMap()

used by the morphology analyzer to get more direct access to the dictionary

Returns:

- the dictionary structure to be processed by the morphology analyzer

writeToFile

public void writeToFile(java.io.File outputFile)
                 throws java.io.IOException,
                        java.lang.NullPointerException

simply print out list sorted according to POS tags: POS original replacement

Parameters:

- - the file to write the dictionary to

Throws:

java.io.IOException

Parameters:

- - the file to write the dictionary to

readReverse

public static ConversionDictionary readReverse(java.io.File keyFile)

read a dictionary in reverse from a file as generated by writeToFile() dictionary is then in the correct format to be used for demasking

Parameters:
