Package: pymmseg
pymmseg-cppby pluskid & kronuzhttp://github.com/pluskid/pymmseg-cpp== DESCRIPTION:pymmseg-cpp is a Python interface to rmmseg-cpp. rmmseg-cpp is a highperformance Chinese word segmentation utility for Ruby. However, thecore part is written in C++ independent of Ruby. So I decide to writea Python interface for it in order to use it in my Python project.== FEATURES:* Runs fast and the memory consumption is small.* Support user customized dictionaries.* UTF-8 and Unicode encoding is supported.== SYNOPSIS:=== A simple scriptpymmseg-cpp provides a simple script (bin/pymmseg), which can read thetext from standard input and print the segmented result to standardoutput. Try pymmseg -h for help on the options.=== As a Python moduleTo use pymmseg-cpp in normal Python program, first import the module andinit by loading the dictionaries:from pymmseg import mmsegmmseg.Dictionary.load_dictionaries()If you want to load your own customized dictionaries, please customize``mmseg.Dictionary.dictionaries`` before calling load_dictionaries.Then create an Algorithm iterable object and iterate through it:algor = mmseg.Algorithm(text)for tok in algor:print '%s [%d..%d]' % (tok.text, tok.start, tok.end)=== Customize the dictionaryYou can also load your own character dictionary or word dictionary in thefollowing way:from pymmseg import mmsegmmseg.dict_load_words('customize_words.dic')mmseg.dict_load_chars('customize_chars.dic')==== Format for chars.dic* each line contains the freq of the character, a space, and then the character==== Format for words.dic* each line contains the length of the word, a space, and then the word==== WARNING* The length of the word means number of characters in the word, not number of bytes* The format of words.dic is different from chars.dic, see above* There should be a newline at the end of all the dict file== REQUIREMENTS:* python 2.5+* g++== INSTALLATION:pymmseg-cpp should be installed using pip or setuptools:pip install pymmseg-cppeasy_install pymmseg-cppDownload the package athttp://code.google.com/p/pymmseg-cpp/downloads/list. If you downloadthe source tarball, you'll need to compile it by using:python setup.py buildif you download the pre-compiled version, this step can be skipped.Then copy the pymmseg directory to your Python's package path. e.g./usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ . Now you can use pymmseg in yourapplication.== CONTRIBUTIONS:Python native extension code contributed by German M.
