| − | This opens a new discussion: A "Java port" of Apertium, enabling use on |
||
| − | - Windows, |
||
| − | - J2ME/Android phones, |
||
| − | - web pages (applets), |
||
| − | - desktop application, |
||
| − | - Java server applications. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The last 2 is relevant as, for example an OpenOffice.org plugin should be platform independent to be maintainable. |
||
| − | |||
| − | AFAIK we havent seen anyone embedding Apertium in a desktop application. Currently Apertium is usable in a local subdir but installation isnt trivial to an end user, but note that 'embedding' something isnt the same as 'using a locally installed version'. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Having a packaged easy-to-use version of Apertium ready for embedding MT in a larger program would be so cool I havent got words for it. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Of course an answer here is "web service", but there can be reasons why people prefers to have things installed locally (we don't need to repeat them here). |
||
| − | |||
| − | Missing for a complete port of apertium in java is tagger, piping/modes, interchunk/postchunk and format handling. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Any thoughts on this? |
||
| − | |||
| − | Af I see it: |
||
| − | - Interchunk/postchunk I could do in very short time, so I could mentor this |
||
| − | - Tagger: The C++ code is there and some has already been ported to Java (lttoolbox parts), probably someone could port it relatively easy, if someone understanding tagger would co-mentor that part. I'd say its not necessary to port tagger training, just the core (bigram) tagging during translation. |
||
| − | - Piping/modes isnt too hard. |
||
| − | - Format handling: I'd say that it would be OK just to be able to handle normal text. |
