Class GermaNetObject

java.lang.Object
  org.eml.sir.gn.GermaNetObject

Direct Known Subclasses:

StemmingGermaNetObject

public class GermaNetObject

extends java.lang.Object

An instance of GermaNetObject makes the information of the GermaNet accessible. Use the getWordsense/s() and getSynsets() methods. Then use get() methods on the WordSense resp. Synset instances thus obtained.

Constructor Detail

GermaNetObject

public GermaNetObject()

Create a new instance of GermaNetObject. Use a GermaNetParser to get a working instance of GermaNetObject.

GermaNetObject

public GermaNetObject(java.util.TreeMap nounsWos,
                      java.util.HashMap nounsSyn,
                      java.util.TreeMap verbsWos,
                      java.util.HashMap verbsSyn,
                      java.util.TreeMap adjesWos,
                      java.util.HashMap adjesSyn)

Create a new instance of GermaNetObject. This method is used by the GermaNetParser to initialize a GermaNetObject. Use an instance of GermaNetParser to get a working GermaNetObject.

Method Detail

getWordSense

public WordSense getWordSense(java.lang.String graphs,
                              char pos,
                              int sense)

Return a WordSense with specified parameters. Note that this method is different from StemmingGermaNetObject's getWordSenses(String, char, int). So it will not be overloaded by it.

Parameters:

graphs - Graphemic representation of the requested WordSense.

pos - Part of speech of the requested WordSense.

sense - Sense number of the requested WordSense.

Returns:

Requested WordSense or null if no appropiate WordSense is available.

getWordSenses

public java.util.ArrayList getWordSenses(java.lang.String graphs,
                                         char pos)

Return a list of word senses, which constitute a lexeme.

Parameters:

graphs - Graphemic representation of the requested WordSense.

pos - Part of speech of the requested WordSense.

Returns:

Requested WordSenses or null if no appropiate WordSense is available.

getSynsets

public java.util.ArrayList getSynsets(java.lang.String graphs,
                                      char pos)

Return a list of synsets that correlate to word senses, with the same graphemic representation and part of speech.

Parameters:

graphs - Graphemic representation of the requested Synsets.

Returns:

Requested Synsets or null if no appropiate Synset is available.

getWordSenses

public java.util.ArrayList getWordSenses(java.lang.String graphs)

Return a list of word senses, with the same graphemic representation.

Parameters:

graphs - Graphemic representation of the requested WordSense.

Returns:

Requested WordSenses or null if no appropiate WordSense is available.

getSynsets

public java.util.ArrayList getSynsets(java.lang.String graphs)

Return a list of synsets that correlate to word senses, with the same graphemic representation.

Parameters:

graphs - Graphemic representation of the requested Synsets.

Returns:

Requested Synsets or null if no appropiate Synset is available.

wordSensesKeySet

public java.util.Set wordSensesKeySet(char pos)

Return the keys to all word senses of a specific part of speech.

getWordSensesAmount

public int getWordSensesAmount(char pos)

Return the number of WordSenses in this GermaNetObject.

getAllWordSenses

public java.util.TreeSet getAllWordSenses(char pos)

Return all WordSenses of this GermaNetObject.

Returns:

TreeSet containing WordSenses.

getSynsetsAmount

public int getSynsetsAmount(char pos)

Return the number of Synsets in this GermaNetObject.

getAllSynsets

public java.util.TreeSet getAllSynsets(char pos)

Return all Synsets of this GermaNetObject.

Returns:

TreeSet containing WordSenses.
