Non-Segmented Language Support in Watson Explorer Engine
Note: This information does not apply if you are using lexical analysis language
streams. Lexical analysis streams have improved support for non-segmented languages. To
learn more about lexical analysis streams, see Lexical Analysis
Streams.
This section outlines the steps required to use Watson™ Explorer Engine to create search applications that crawl and index data including documents written in non-segmented languages such as Chinese, Japanese, Thai, and so on.
Support for individual non-segmented languages is organized in a parallel fashion. For this reason, subsequent sections of this document use language as a variable for which the name of a supported, non-segmented language should be substituted. The non-segmented languages that are supported by Watson Explorer Engine are shown in the following table:
| Language | Replacement for Variable |
|---|---|
| Chinese | chinese |
| Japanese | japanese |
| Korean | korean |
| Thai | thai |
