NLTK: the natural language toolkit

Open access

Abstract

The Natural Language Toolkit is a suite of program modules, data sets, tutorials and exercises, covering symbolic and statistical natural language processing. NLTK is written in Python and distributed under the GPL open source license. Over the past three years, NLTK has become popular in teaching and research. We describe the toolkit and report on its current state of development.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
