Descripción
Sumario:In this article we present Lavinia, a UIMA-based, collaborative web platform for Natural Language Processing, were both NLP software developers and linguistic analysts can test, use and share di©erent NLP components in a straightforward way. Lavinia allows users to execute UIMA components using a web browser: they can create and conîgure pipelines of tasks, and view their execution results, without installing any extra-software. We believe that this approach can help people with little computational or programming background to get closer to NLP tools, and NLP component developers to easily share their work.
