public final class JapaneseTokenizer
extends Tokenizer

Tokenizer for Japanese that uses morphological analysis.

This tokenizer sets a number of additional attributes:

• BaseFormAttribute containing base form for inflected adjectives and verbs.
• PartOfSpeechAttribute containing part-of-speech.
• ReadingAttribute containing reading and pronunciation.
• InflectionAttribute containing additional part-of-speech information for inflected forms.

This tokenizer uses a rolling Viterbi search to find the least cost segmentation (path) of the incoming characters. For tokens that appear to be compound (> length 2 for all Kanji, or > length 7 for non-Kanji), we see if there is a 2nd best segmentation of that token after applying penalties to the long tokens. If so, and the Mode is JapaneseTokenizer.Mode.SEARCH, we output the alternate segmentation as well.

Nested Class Summary

static class	JapaneseTokenizer.Mode Tokenization mode: this determines how the tokenizer handles compound and unknown words.
static class	JapaneseTokenizer.Type Token type reflecting the original source of this token
