Ciao is a complete Prolog system subsuming ISO-Prolog with a novel modular design which allows both restricting and extending the language. Ciao extensions currently include feature terms (records), higher-order, functions, constraints, objects, persistent predicates, a good base for distributed execution (agents), and concurrency. Libraries also support WWW programming, sockets, and external interfaces (C, Java, TCL/Tk, relational databases, etc.). An Emacs-based environment, a stand-alone compiler, and a toplevel shell are also provided.
Grok is a library of Java components for performing various natural language tasks. These include several preprocessing tasks, chart parsing, a large categorial grammar for English (induced from the Penn treebank), and some knowledge representation components (basic coreference, salience tracking, etc.). The library also has a companion kit which provides a GUI interface to the components, several of which are implementations of interfaces in the Quipu OpenNLP API.
Maximum entropy is a powerful method for constructing statistical models of classification tasks, such as part-of-speech tagging in Natural Language Processing. The Quipu Maximum Entropy Package is a Java implementation of the maximum entropy framework. It allows you to train, evaluate, and use maxent models.
Name::Find Perl Module is a Perl module for finding names in a text string. It doesn't look for a particular name, but variations of names in the form: Honorific, GivenName1, GivenName2, Surname, Suffix (where some parts may not exist, and GivenName1 and 2 may be initials). It uses a dictionary based approach, so names not in the dictionary will not be found. There is a separate dictionary for each of the word positions in the name, so you don't have to have a list of every possible name combination.
FramerD is a semi-structured object database integrated with a Scheme-based scripting language which supports multi-lingual programming (with pervasive Unicode), a stable module system for programming in the large, distributed applications (via an extensible RPC protocol), non-deterministic (PROLOG-like) evaluation for search and set operations, multi-threaded program execution, extensive tools for text and language analysis, built-in HTML/XML/MIME parsers, and intuitive (CGI- and FastCGI-based) Web scripting. The built-in object database robustly supports millions of objects and indexed access to those objects, both through disk files and networked servers.
SILGraphite (formerly OpenGraphite) is a project within SIL's Non-Roman Script Initiative and Language Software Development groups to provide extensible cross-platform rendering capabilities for complex non-Roman writing systems. It consists of a rule-based programming language, Graphite Description Language (GDL), that can be used to describe the behavior of a writing system, a compiler for that language, and a rendering engine that can serve as the backend of a text processing application. SILGraphite renders TrueType fonts that have been extended by means of compiling a GDL program. It is currently being integrated into Gecko/Mozilla through the SILA project, a GNU/Linux port is also underway, and there are plans for OpenOffice.org and Abiword integration.
Dacco is a collaborative English-Catalan, Catalan-English dictionary project. It seeks to provide an up-to-date, comprehensive, bilingual dictionary that will be of benefit to learners of both languages. The dictionaries are downloadable and customizable (using XSLT) and contain audio files.
