Apache UIMA stands for Unstructured Information Management Applications.
UIMA is an interesting project from the Apache Foundation that tries to analyze and detect information blocks and patterns inside large unorganized data.
As an example to what UIMA does is a situation where developers have large input from their users, let's say text, which they feed to UIMA and the system can detect person and place names inside it, regardless of their location and formatting inside the data.
This is done via a series of malleable components and organized data flows that allow UIMA to detect information at a fast pace inside any type of structure.
UIMA can be used for data analysis in large databases and its support for scalable structures allows developers to run it even in the cloud.
What is new in this release:
- The UIMA Framework has had many enhancements to support the effective use of large memory machines have many multiple-cores.
- Embedders can now run framework setups in parallel on multi-core machines, using a shared common Resource Manager object and shared UIMA Context objects.
What is new in version 2.7.0:
- The UIMA Framework has had many enhancements to support the effective use of large memory machines have many multiple-cores.
- Embedders can now run framework setups in parallel on multi-core machines, using a shared common Resource Manager object and shared UIMA Context objects.
What is new in version 2.5.0:
- This release is mainly a bug-fix release.
What is new in version 2.4.1:
- Documentation of binary serialization.
- New kinds of compressed binary serialization that compress the data significantly and one form that supports unequal source/target type systems
- A new facility called External Parameter Overrides for specifying parameter settings for annotators that uses properties files and is independent of the annotator hierarchy
- CasCopier enhancements to allow copying one view to a different view.
- Additional options to restrict JCasGen operation to generating just those types that are defined in a project, excluding other types that are imported from other projects
- A new Maven plugin that runs JCasGen (see tools documentation for how to configure and use this)
- A new ability to preserve white space (indentation) when parsing XML descriptors; this is now used in the Component Descriptor Editor (CDE), to preserve indentation when editing an existing descriptor.
- Performance and space improvements, including some bulk methods for efficiently removing Feature Structures from Indexes
What is new in version 2.4.0:
- This is a bug fix release, plus some tooling enhancements.
