NLP Lean Programming Framework: Developing NLP Applications More Effectively
M. Schreiber, Bodo Kraft, Albert Zündorf · 2018
This paper presents NLP Lean Programming framework (NLPf), a new framework for creating custom natural language processing (NLP) models and pipelines by utilizing common software development build systems.This approach allows developers to train and integrate domain-specific NLP pipelines into their applications seamlessly.Additionally, NLPf provides an annotation tool which improves the annotation process significantly by providing a well-designed GUI and sophisticated way of using input devices.Due to NLPf's properties developers and domain experts are able to build domain-specific NLP applications more efficiently.NLPf is Opensource software and available at https:// gitlab.com/schrieveslaach/NLPf.
