 | [ description ] |
Textractor is a software framework. The framework is designed to facilitate the development of software tools that process text to extract information. The focus of this framework is on applications that need to process large quantities of text, for instance large collections of full text articles (>10,000 articles). The development of textractor started at the Institute for Computational Biomedicine, Weill Cornell Medical College. Since we distribute the source code under the GPL, you are welcome to reuse or extend the framework in any way you like.
| [ about the method ] |
Software architecture of the framework is unpublished and should be cited as Textractor http://icb.med.cornell.edu/crt/textractor/ (L. Shi and F. Campagne 2004).

Supplementary material for the gene/gene product extraction article:
The names collected from the last quarter of JBC1999 by regular expressions for SVM training are below:
You can download the protein name lookup program here:
To use the lookup program, you will need Java 1.4+. Download the JAR file (tlookup.jar) and type java -jar tlookup.jar for usage information.
You can also download the source code, but will need a full fledged software development environment (JDK1.4+, Ant 1.6+) and will need a suitable JDO implementation (we developed with FastObjects and have not tested porting on another JDO implementation). By downloading this distribution, you agree to the terms of the Gnu General Public License.
The latest development snapshot of the source code archived on August 2nd 2006 is also available for download. This version requires JDK 1.5+ and a suitable JDO implementation.
A precompiled version archived on August 2nd, 2006 is also available for download. This version requires apache ant version 1.6.5 and acess to an oracle database to use.
