toiro

Python package PyPI PyPI - Python Version

Toiro is a comparison tool of Japanese tokenizers.

It also provides useful functions for natural language processing in Japanese.

Installation

Python 3.6+ is required. You can install toiro with the following command. Janome is included in the default installation.

pip install toiro

Adding a tokenizer to toiro

If you want to add a tokenizer to toiro, please install it individually. This is an example of adding SudachiPy and nagisa to toiro.

pip install sudachipy sudachidict_core
pip install nagisa

If you want to install all the tokonizers at once, please use the following command.

pip install toiro[all_tokenizers]

Getting started

You can check the available tokonizers in your Python environment.

from toiro import tokenizers

available_tokenizers = tokenizers.available_tokenizers()
print(available_tokenizers)

Toiro supports 12 different Japanese tokonizers. This is an example of adding SudachiPy and nagisa.

Download the livedoor news corpus and compare the processing speed of tokenizers.

from toiro import tokenizers
from toiro import datadownloader

# A list of avaliable corpora in toiro
corpora = datadownloader.available_corpus()
print(corpora)
#=> ['livedoor_news_corpus', 'yahoo_movie_reviews', 'amazon_reviews']

# Download the livedoor news corpus and load it as pandas.DataFrame
corpus = corpora[0]
datadownloader.download_corpus(corpus)
train_df, dev_df, test_df = datadownloader.load_corpus(corpus)
texts = train_df[1]

# Compare the processing speed of tokenizers
report = tokenizers.compare(texts)

# Compare the words segmented in tokenizers
text = "都庁所在地は新宿区。"
tokenizers.print_words(text, delimiter="|")
