POS Tagger For Mac

A Part-Of-Speech Tagger (POS Tagger) is a Java-based utility that reads text in some language and assigns parts of speech to each word (and other token), such as noun, verb, adjective, etc., although generally computational applications use more fine-grained POS tags like 'noun-plural'.

The basic download is a gzipped tar file with support for tagging English. The full download is a gzipped tar file, which includes an additional English model and trained models for Arabic, Chinese, and German. In both cases most of the file size is due to the trained model files.

The only difference between the two downloads is the number of trained models included. If you unpack the tar file, you should have everything needed.

This software provides a GUI demo, a command-line interface, and an API. Simple scripts are included to invoke the tagger. For more information on use, see the included README.txt.

Detailed instructions on how to install and use the POS Tagger utility on your Mac are available HERE.

POS Tagger is a cross-platform utility capable of running on any operating system that comes with Java support (e.g. Mac OS X, Windows, Linux).
