Configuring a UIMA pipeline
You can configure a UIMA pipeline file to specify the sequence of linguistic resources to use to analyze documents.
About this task
The UIMA pipeline configuration file is a place holder for the linguistic resources and configuration parameters that are used to annotate documents. The resources are included in various stages of the pipeline that run consecutively and interact together to analyze documents and generate annotations.
For each stage
in the pipeline, you can view a list of the UIMA types that are required
as input to that stage and the UIMA types that are generated by
the stage.
Tip: If a stage requires an input type
that is not generated by an earlier stage in the pipeline, that input
type is displayed with a warning icon. Right-click the missing
type and click Find to view a list of
the Content Analytics Studio resources
in your project that generate the missing type. Then, add one of those
resources to the pipeline.
Configuring a UIMA pipeline is an iterative process. As you create more resources, such as new custom dictionaries and parsing rules databases, you must go back and edit the UIMA pipeline configuration file to include these resources as part of the analysis process.
Procedure
To configure a UIMA pipeline:
