Configuration Parameters

• Parameter
  summary The resource which contains the pattern database name patterns type string array required true

"patterns":"saga_provider:advanced_patterns"

Example Output

The following shows sample output from the advanced pattern matcher, which has multiple patterns for the {product} and {person-product-preference} semantic tags.

 V--------------------[Abe Lincoln likes the iPhone-7]--------------------V 
 ^---[Abe]----V--[Lincoln]--V--[likes]--V--[the]--V------[iPhone-7]-------^ 
                                                  ^---[iPhone]----V--[7]--^
 ^---[abe]----^--[lincoln]--^                     ^---[iphone]----^
 ^--[{name}]--^--[{place}]--^           ^-----------[{product}]-----------^

 ^---------------------[{person-product-preference}]----------------------^

Output Flags

Lexical Item Flags

• SEMANTIC_TAG - Identifies all lexical items which are semantic tags.
• PROCESSED - Placed on all tokens that compose the semantic tag.

Resource Data

The resource data

is a database of advanced patterns

and the resulting semantic

tags that they produce.

Resource Format

The pattern database is a series of JSON records, typically indexed by "pattern block ID".  Each JSON record represents a block of patterns (one or more) that all produce the same semantic tag.  The format is as follows:

{
  "id":"Q28260",
  "tags":["{city}", "{administrative-area}", "{geography}"],
  "patterns":[
    "Lincoln", "Lincoln, Nebraska", "Lincoln, NE"
  ],
  "confidence":0.95
  
  . . . additional fields as needed go here . . . 
}

Fields

• Parameter
  summary Identifies the entry. This identifier may not be unique, and is not the id of the database, but an specific use case id name id required true

  
  Typically, this is an identifier with meaning to the larger application that is using the Language Processing Toolkit.
  
  

• Parameter
  summary What to show the user when browsing this entity name display required true

  
  
  

• Parameter
  summary Tag which will identify any match in the graph, as an interpretation name tag required true

  
  These will all be added to the interpretation graph with the SEMANTIC_TAG flag.
  

  Tip
  Tags are hierarchical representations of the same intent. For example, {city} → {administrative-area} → {geographical-area}

• Parameter
  summary Pattern to match in the content name pattern required true

  Note
  Currently, tokens are separated on simple white-space and punctuation, and then reduced to lowercase.

• Parameter
  summary Specifies the confidence level of the entry, independent of any patterns matched name confidence type boolean required true

  
  This is the confidence of the entry, in comparison to all of the other entries. (Essentially, the likelihood that this entity will be randomly encountered.)
  
  

• Parameter
  summary Additional information for the entry. At the moment this information is not expected default empty json name fields type json

  
  
  

• Parameter
  summary Date in milliseconds of the last time the entry was updated name updatedAt type date epoch required true

  
  
  

• Parameter
  summary Date in milliseconds of the creation time of the entry name createdAt type date epoch required true
