Python wrapper for Stanford CoreNLP tools v3.4.1

Overview

Python interface to Stanford Core NLP tools v3.4.1

This is a Python wrapper for Stanford University's NLP group's Java-based CoreNLP tools. It can either be imported as a module or run as a JSON-RPC server. Because it uses many large trained models (requiring 3GB RAM on 64-bit machines and usually a few minutes loading time), most applications will probably want to run it as a server.

  • Python interface to Stanford CoreNLP tools: tagging, phrase-structure parsing, dependency parsing, named-entity recognition, and coreference resolution.
  • Runs an JSON-RPC server that wraps the Java server and outputs JSON.
  • Outputs parse trees which can be used by nltk.

It depends on pexpect and includes and uses code from jsonrpc and python-progressbar.

It runs the Stanford CoreNLP jar in a separate process, communicates with the java process using its command-line interface, and makes assumptions about the output of the parser in order to parse it into a Python dict object and transfer it using JSON. The parser will break if the output changes significantly, but it has been tested on Core NLP tools version 3.4.1 released 2014-08-27.

Download and Usage

To use this program you must download and unpack the compressed file containing Stanford's CoreNLP package. By default, corenlp.py looks for the Stanford Core NLP folder as a subdirectory of where the script is being run. In other words:

sudo pip install pexpect unidecode
git clone git://github.com/dasmith/stanford-corenlp-python.git
cd stanford-corenlp-python
wget http://nlp.stanford.edu/software/stanford-corenlp-full-2014-08-27.zip
unzip stanford-corenlp-full-2014-08-27.zip

Then launch the server:

python corenlp.py

Optionally, you can specify a host or port:

python corenlp.py -H 0.0.0.0 -p 3456

That will run a public JSON-RPC server on port 3456.

Assuming you are running on port 8080, the code in client.py shows an example parse:

import jsonrpc
from simplejson import loads
server = jsonrpc.ServerProxy(jsonrpc.JsonRpc20(),
                             jsonrpc.TransportTcpIp(addr=("127.0.0.1", 8080)))

result = loads(server.parse("Hello world.  It is so beautiful"))
print "Result", result

That returns a dictionary containing the keys sentences and coref. The key sentences contains a list of dictionaries for each sentence, which contain parsetree, text, tuples containing the dependencies, and words, containing information about parts of speech, recognized named-entities, etc:

{u'sentences': [{u'parsetree': u'(ROOT (S (VP (NP (INTJ (UH Hello)) (NP (NN world)))) (. !)))',
                 u'text': u'Hello world!',
                 u'tuples': [[u'dep', u'world', u'Hello'],
                             [u'root', u'ROOT', u'world']],

                            [u'world',
                             {u'CharacterOffsetBegin': u'6',

                            [u'!',
                             {u'CharacterOffsetBegin': u'11',
                              u'CharacterOffsetEnd': u'12',
                              u'Lemma': u'!',
                              u'NamedEntityTag': u'O',
                              u'PartOfSpeech': u'.'}]]},
                {u'parsetree': u'(ROOT (S (NP (PRP It)) (VP (VBZ is) (ADJP (RB so) (JJ beautiful))) (. .)))',
                 u'text': u'It is so beautiful.',

                 u'words': [[u'It',

                            [u'so',
                             {u'CharacterOffsetBegin': u'20',
                              u'CharacterOffsetEnd': u'22',
                              u'Lemma': u'so',
                              u'NamedEntityTag': u'O',
                              u'PartOfSpeech': u'RB'}],
                            [u'beautiful',
                             {u'CharacterOffsetBegin': u'23',
                              u'CharacterOffsetEnd': u'32',
                              u'Lemma': u'beautiful',
                              u'NamedEntityTag': u'O',
                              u'PartOfSpeech': u'JJ'}],
                            [u'.',
                             {u'CharacterOffsetBegin': u'32',
                              u'CharacterOffsetEnd': u'33',
                              u'Lemma': u'.',
                              u'NamedEntityTag': u'O',
                              u'PartOfSpeech': u'.'}]]}],
u'coref': [[[[u'It', 1, 0, 0, 1], [u'Hello world', 0, 1, 0, 2]]]]}

To use it in a regular script (useful for debugging), load the module instead:

from corenlp import *
corenlp = StanfordCoreNLP()  # wait a few minutes...
corenlp.parse("Parse this sentence.")

The server, StanfordCoreNLP(), takes an optional argument corenlp_path which specifies the path to the jar files. The default value is StanfordCoreNLP(corenlp_path="./stanford-corenlp-full-2014-08-27/").

Coreference Resolution

The library supports coreference resolution, which means pronouns can be "dereferenced." If an entry in the coref list is, [u'Hello world', 0, 1, 0, 2], the numbers mean:

  • 0 = The reference appears in the 0th sentence (e.g. "Hello world")
  • 1 = The 2nd token, "world", is the headword of that sentence
  • 0 = 'Hello world' begins at the 0th token in the sentence
  • 2 = 'Hello world' ends before the 2nd token in the sentence.

Questions

Stanford CoreNLP tools require a large amount of free memory. Java 5+ uses about 50% more RAM on 64-bit machines than 32-bit machines. 32-bit machine users can lower the memory requirements by changing -Xmx3g to -Xmx2g or even less. If pexpect timesout while loading models, check to make sure you have enough memory and can run the server alone without your kernel killing the java process:

java -cp stanford-corenlp-2014-08-27.jar:stanford-corenlp-3.4.1-models.jar:xom.jar:joda-time.jar -Xmx3g edu.stanford.nlp.pipeline.StanfordCoreNLP -props default.properties
