---We apologize if you have received multiple copies of this
announcement. ---
We are pleased to announce the first release of FreeLing.
FreeLing is an open-source C++ library providing language
analysis services (such as morfological analysis, date recognition,
PoS tagging, etc.). The sofwtare is released under LGPL.
FreeLing has been developed a the TALP Research Center in
Universitat Politčcnica de Catalunya (http://www.lsi.upc.es/~nlp).
The linguistic data included in the package has been coded by
Centre de Llenguatge i Computació in Universitat de Barcelona
(http://clic.fil.ub.es)
The current version (1.0) of the package provides tokenizing, sentence
splitting, morphological analysis, NE detection, date/number/currency
recognition and PoS tagging. Future versions will improve performance
in existing functionalities, as well as incorporate new features, such
as chuncking, NE classification, document classification, etc.
FreeLing is designed to be used as an external library from any
application requiring this kind of services. Nevertheless, a simple
main program is also provided as a basic interface to the library,
which enables the user to analyze text files from the command line.
