opennlp.uima.normalizer.Normalizer

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `org.apache.uima.analysis_component.AnalysisComponent`

public class Normalizer extends org.apache.uima.analysis_component.CasAnnotator_ImplBase
The Normalizer tries the structure annotations. The structured value is then assigned to a field of the annotation.

The process depends on the

string Tokens must be (fuzzy) mapped to categories eg. a month, a day or a year (use dictionary) integer, float tokens must be parsed eg. for percentage or period boolean tokens must be parsed eg is there any ???

Restricted set of outcomes throw an error if not matched or silently fail unrestricted set of outcomes.
