NLP++ is a computer language specifically designed for processing unstructured or semi-unstructured text and includes the NLP++ language, as well as the Conceptual Grammar, a hierarchical knowledge base. NLP++ works in conjunction with the Integrated Development Environment VisualText.

Overview

NLP++ was designed to build text analyzers that read and process text like human readers combining an island-driven, bottom up sequential pattern matching with a hierarchical knowledge base called the conceptual grammar. NLP++ can dynamically build knowledge and use stored knowledge in order to aid in the task of understanding written text.

History

In December of 2018, NLP++ went open source. The company Text Analysis International was desolved and it was moved to an open source MIT license by creators Amnon Meyers and David de Hilster.

NLP Engine

The NLP engine is a C++ class and executable. It currently compiles on linux and will be available on windows and mac Os in the near future.
