Can HN recommend any cheaper (free) alternatives for a startup?
- mark_l_watson 16y agoSome ideas: Stanford NLP tools, libsvm, Mallet, and some of my own open source projects. That said, LingPipe is well put together, and for some organizations may be a great way to go.
- kranner 16y agoIf you like python, try NLTK http://www.nltk.org/ http://www.nltk.org/
- viraptor 16y agoQuickly looking through the javadoc, I can't see anything from LangPipe that's not available in NLTK. NLTK was really fun to use in my project... It's not always nice to look at its internals (in many places it was written by people who know more about NLP than about programming) but even that isn't terrible. So yes - one more vote for NLTK.
