Why core.nlp?

core.nlp provides natural language processing as a language extension for Clojure

The central objective of core.nlp is to make natural language processing idiomatic, productive, elegant and fast within the Clojure environment.

(tokenize "a quick fox jumps")

=> ["a" "quick" "fox" "jumps"]

Key goals of core.nlp:

  • Provide a clear, standard API / abstraction for NLP processing and analysis in Clojure
  • Enable pluggable support for different underlying NLP library implementations
  • Provide a general purpose pure clojure implementation (pure-nlp)
  • Provide a foundation library for other projects
  • Enable high performance and scalable NLP processing
  • Work with big data platforms such as Apache Spark, Storm or Hadoop
