Nagisa is a python module for Japanese word segmentation/POS-tagging. It is designed to be a simple and easy-to-use tool.

This tool has the following features.

  • Based on recurrent neural networks.
  • The word segmentation model uses character- and word-level features [池田+].
  • The POS-tagging model uses tag dictionary information [Inoue+].

For more details refer to the following links.

  • The stop words for nagisa are available here.
  • The presentation slide at PyCon JP (2022) is available here.
  • The article in Japanese is available here.
  • The documentation is available here.

Installation

Python 3.6 through 3.12 on Linux, or Python 3.6 through 3.11 on macOS Intel is required. This tool uses DyNet (the Dynamic Neural Network Toolkit) to calcucate neural networks. You can install nagisa by using the following command.

pip install nagisa

For Windows users, please run it with python 3.6, 3.7 or 3.8 (64bit). It is also compatible with the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).

Basic usage

Sample of word segmentation and POS-tagging for Japanese.

import nagisa

text = 'Pythonで簡単に使えるツールです'
words = nagisa.tagging(text)
print(words)
#=> Python/名詞 で/助詞 簡単/形状詞 に/助動詞 使える/動詞 ツール/名詞 です/助動詞

# Get a list of words
print(words.words)
#=> ['Python', 'で', '簡単', 'に', '使える', 'ツール', 'です']

# Get a list of POS-tags
print(words.postags)
#=> ['名詞', '助詞', '形状詞', '助動詞', '動詞', '名詞', '助動詞']

Post-processing functions

Filter and extarct words by the specific POS tags.

# Filter the words of the specific POS tags.
words = nagisa.filter(text, filter_postags=['助詞', '助動詞'])
print(words)
#=> Python/名詞 簡単/形状詞 使える/動詞 ツール/名詞

# Extarct only nouns.
words = nagisa.extract(text, extract_postags=['名詞'])
print(words)
#=> Python/名詞 ツール/名詞

# This is a list of available POS-tags in nagisa.
print(nagisa.tagger.postags)
#=> ['補助記号', '名詞', ... , 'URL']

Add the user dictionary in easy way.

# default
text = "3月に見た「3月のライオン」"
print(nagisa.tagging(text))
#=> 3/名詞 月/名詞 に/助詞 見/動詞 た/助動詞 「/補助記号 3/名詞 月/名詞 の/助詞 ライオン/名詞 」/補助記号

# If a word ("3月のライオン") is included in the single_word_list, it is recognized as a single word.
new_tagger = nagisa.Tagger(single_word_list=['3月のライオン'])
print(new_tagger.tagging(text))
#=> 3/名詞 月/名詞 に/助詞 見/動詞 た/助動詞 「/補助記号 3月のライオン/名詞 」/補助記号

Train a model

Nagisa (v0.2.0+) provides a simple train method for a joint word segmentation and sequence labeling (e.g, POS-tagging, NER) model.

The format of the train/dev/test files is tsv. Each line is word and tag and one line is represented by word \t(tab) tag. Note that you put EOS between sentences. Refer to sample datasets and tutorial (Train a model for Universal Dependencies).
