Method Detail

• createNode

  NODE_TYPE createNode(JCas jCas,
                     NODE_SPAN_TYPE span)

  Creates a new dependency node for the specified span

• createRelation

  RELATION_TYPE createRelation(JCas jCas,
                             NODE_TYPE head,
                             NODE_TYPE child,
                             String relation)

  Creates a relation between the two nodes. If dealing with a type system where the relation is a separate object, this will likely create a new relation object. For graphs that have the relation built into the node, this will likely just set labels on head and child relation fields

• createRootNode

  ROOT_NODE_TYPE createRootNode(JCas jCas,
                              ROOT_NODE_SPAN_TYPE span)

• getHead

  NODE_TYPE getHead(JCas jCas,
                  RELATION_TYPE relation)

• getHeadRelations

  List<RELATION_TYPE> getHeadRelations(JCas jCas,
                                     NODE_TYPE node)

• getLabel

  String getLabel(JCas jCas,
                RELATION_TYPE relation)

• selectNodes

  List<NODE_TYPE> selectNodes(JCas jCas,
                            Annotation coveringAnnotation)

  Selects all dependency nodes within the annotation, excluding the root node. Nodes should be ordered by their offsets.

• selectRootNode

  ROOT_NODE_TYPE selectRootNode(JCas jCas,
                              Annotation coveringAnnotation)

  Selects the single root node within the annotation. Should error on more than one root node.

• setChildRelations

  void setChildRelations(JCas jCas,
                       NODE_TYPE node,
                       List<RELATION_TYPE> childRelations)

  Sets the head relations for a given node. This is only important if the type system supports multi-child dependency parses

• setHeadRelations

  void setHeadRelations(JCas jCas,
                      NODE_TYPE node,
                      List<RELATION_TYPE> headRelations)

  Sets the head relations for a given node. This is only important if the type system supports multi-head dependency parses
