A library for processing plain text corpora to various corpus formats.

In most cases, each NLP tool uses its own idiosyncratic input format. This library helps you to convert a corpus very easy to the desired format.

It is called Forpus, because you are formatting a corpus, but this is also a genus of parrot in the family Psittacidae.

This library supports conversions to

• JSON
• Document-term matrix

• Graph

  • GEXF
  • GML
  • GraphML
  • Pajek
  • SparseGraph6
  • YAML

• David Blei’s LDA-C
• Thorsten Joachims’ SVMlight

See Getting Started for how to install Forpus.
