Using NLP APIs
There are a number of NLP API classes that support SBD. Some are rule-based, whereas
others use models that have been trained using common and uncommon text. We will illus-
trate the use of sentence detection classes using the OpenNLP, Stanford, and LingPipe
APIs.
The models can also be trained. The discussion of this approach is illustrated in the
Train-
ing a Sentence Detector model
section of this chapter. Specialized models are needed when
working with specialized text such as medical or legal text.
