Models

What models are there?

UralicNLP can currently use three different kinds of models: HFST morphological generator, HFST morphological analyser and constraint grammar disambiguator. The HFST models are available for all the supported languages, while the CGs are limited to only a few languages.

The models originate from the Giellatekno repository and their copyrights belong to the respective authors, however everything in the Giellatekno repository is open source.

Downloading models

from uralicNLP import uralicApi
uralicApi.download("fin")

The above snippet downloads all the models for Finnish. Run with sudo privileges for a system wide installation.

Where are models located?

from uralicNLP import uralicApi
print uralicApi.__model_base_folders()

Gives you the list of the possible locations for the models. If you want to create your own models, just create a subdirectory in any of these locations by the three letter language code of your language. Name your models as generator, analyser and cg without file extensions.
