Awesome NLP with Ruby

Useful resources for text processing in Ruby

This curated list comprises awesome resources, libraries, information sources about computational processing of texts in human languages with the Ruby programming language. That field is often referred to as NLP, Computational Linguistics, HLT (Human Language Technology) and can be brought in conjunction with Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Information Retrieval, Text Mining, Knowledge Extraction and other related disciplines.

This list comes from our day to day work on Language Models and NLP Tools. Read why this list is awesome. Our FAQ describes the important decisions and useful answers you may be interested in.

NLP Pipeline Subtasks

An NLP Pipeline starts with a plain text.

Pipeline Generation

Multipurpose Engines

On-line APIs

Language Identification

Language Identification is one of the first crucial steps in every NLP Pipeline.

Segmentation

Tools for Tokenization, Word and Sentence Boundary Detection and Disambiguation.

Lexical Processing

Stemming

Stemming is the term used in information retrieval to describe the process for reducing wordforms to some base representation. Stemming should be distinguished from Lemmatization since stems are not necessarily have linguistic motivation.

Lemmatization

Lemmatization is considered a process of finding a base form of a word. Lemmas are often collected in dictionaries.

Lexical Statistics: Counting Types and Tokens

Filtering Stop Words

Phrasal Level Processing

Syntactic Processing

Constituency Parsing

Semantic Analysis

Pragmatical Analysis

High Level Tasks

Spelling and Error Correction

Text Alignment

Machine Translation

Sentiment Analysis

Numbers, Dates, and Time Parsing

Named Entity Recognition

Text-to-Speech-to-Text

Dialog Agents, Assistants, and Chatbots

Linguistic Resources

Machine Learning Libraries

Machine Learning Algorithms in pure Ruby or written in other programming languages with appropriate bindings for Ruby.

For more up-to-date list please look at the Awesome ML with Ruby list.

Data Visualization

Please refer to the Data Visualization section on the Data Science with Ruby list.

Optical Character Recognition

Text Extraction

Full Text Search, Information Retrieval, Indexing

Language Aware String Manipulation

Libraries for language aware string manipulation, i.e. search, pattern matching, case conversion, transcoding, regular expressions which need information about the underlying language.
