The Apache OpenNLP team is pleased to announce the release of Apache OpenNLP 2.3.1.
The Apache OpenNLP library is a machine learning based toolkit for the processing of natural language text.
It supports the most common NLP tasks, such as tokenization, sentence segmentation, part-of-speech tagging, named entity extraction, chunking, parsing, and coreference resolution.
Apache OpenNLP 2.3.1 binary and source distributions are available for download from our download page.
The OpenNLP library is distributed by Maven Central as well. See the Maven Dependency page for more details: Maven Dependency
It is a maintenance release which mainly provides enhancements. Some of these are related to sentences models and the use of abbreviations. Moreover, it switches the ONNX runtime for the 'opennlp-dl' component from the GPU to the CPU-based variant. Several other (cleanup) tasks have also been completed.
For a full list of improvements, please see the list of items addressed in Jira.
