The Apache OpenNLP library is a machine learning based toolkit for the processing of natural language text.

This toolkit is written completely in Java and provides support for common NLP tasks, such as tokenization,
 sentence segmentation, part-of-speech tagging, named entity extraction, chunking, parsing,
  coreference resolution, language detection and more!

These tasks are usually required to build more advanced text processing services.

The goal of the OpenNLP project is to be a mature toolkit for the above mentioned tasks.

An additional goal is to provide a large number of pre-built models for a variety of languages, as
well as the annotated text resources that those models are derived from.

Presently, OpenNLP includes common classifiers such as Maximum Entropy, Perceptron and Naive Bayes.

OpenNLP can be used both programmatically through its Java API or from a terminal through its CLI. 
OpenNLP API can be easily plugged into distributed streaming data pipelines like Apache Flink, Apache NiFi, Apache Spark.

For additional information, visit the [OpenNLP Home Page](http://opennlp.apache.org/)

You can use OpenNLP with any language, demo models are provided [here](https://downloads.apache.org/opennlp/models/).

The models are fully compatible with the latest release, they can be used for testing or getting started. 

> [!NOTE]  
> Please train your own models for all other use cases.

Documentation, including JavaDocs, code usage and command-line interface examples are available [here](http://opennlp.apache.org/docs/)

## Overview

Currently, the library has different packages:

* `opennlp-tools` : The core toolkit.
* `opennlp-tools-models` : A set of classes to load [OpenNLP models](https://github.com/apache/opennlp-models) from the classpath.
* `opennlp-uima` : A set of [Apache UIMA](https://uima.apache.org) annotators.
* `opennlp-morfologik-addon` : An addon for _Morfologik_.
* `opennlp-dl` : OpenNLP interface implementations for [ONNX](https://onnx.ai) models using the `onnxruntime` dependency.
* `opennlp-dl-gpu` : Replaces `onnxruntime` with the `onnxruntime_gpu` dependency to support GPU acceleration.
* `opennlp-sandbox`: Other projects in progress reside in the [sandbox](https://github.com/apache/opennlp-sandbox).           

## Getting Started

You can import the core toolkit directly from Maven, SBT or Gradle:

#### Maven

```
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.opennlp</groupId>
    <artifactId>opennlp-tools</artifactId>
    <version>${opennlp.version}</version>
</dependency>
```

#### SBT

```
libraryDependencies += "org.apache.opennlp" % "opennlp-tools" % "${opennlp.version}"
```

#### Gradle

```
compile group: "org.apache.opennlp", name: "opennlp-tools", version: "${opennlp.version}"
```

For more details please check our [documentation](http://opennlp.apache.org/docs/)

## Branches and Merging Strategy

To support ongoing development and stable maintenance of Apache OpenNLP, the project follows a dual-branch model:

### Branch overview

- **`main`**: Development branch for version **3.0** and beyond. All feature development and 3.x releases occur here.
- **`opennlp-2.x`**: Maintains the stable **2.x** release line. This branch will receive selective updates and patch releases.

### Workflow summary

- Feature development
  - New features targeting versions 3.0+ are developed on feature branches _off_ `main` and merged _into_ `main`.
- Bug fixes and dependency updates
  - Relevant fixes or dependency updates from `main` may be cherry-picked into `opennlp-2.x` as needed.
- Releases
  - **3.x** releases are made from the `main` branch.
  - **2.x** releases are made from the `opennlp-2.x` branch.
- Release tags
  - Release tags are applied directly to the appropriate version branch (`main` for 3.x or `opennlp-2.x` for 2.x). 
  - The presence of a version branch does not affect the tagging or visibility of releases.

## Building OpenNLP

At least JDK 17 and Maven 3.3.9 are required to build the library.

After cloning the repository go into the destination directory and run:

```
mvn install
```

### Additional Development Information

- Building and integrating [Snowball Stemmer](dev/Snowball-Stemmer.md) for OpenNLP.
