** The system uses dependency links for building Text Graphs, that with help of a centrality algorithm like PageRank, extract relevant keyphrases, summaries and relations from text documents. A SWI-Prolog based module adds an interactive shell for talking about the document with a dialog agent that extracts for each query the most relevant sentences covering the document. Spoken dialog is also available if the OS supports it. Developed with Python 3, on OS X, but also working on Linux.**

DeepRank is based on two packages.

TextGraphCrafts

Python-based summary, keyphrase and relation extractor from text documents using dependency graphs.

Project Description

** The system uses dependency links for building Text Graphs, that with help of a centrality algorithm like PageRank, extract relevant keyphrases, summaries and relations from text documents. Developed with Python 3, on OS X, but portable to Linux.**

Dependencies:

• python 3.7 or newer, pip3, java 9.x or newer. Also, having git installed is recommended for easy updates
• pip3 install nltk
• also, run in python3 something like

import nltk
nltk.download('wordnet')
nltk.download('words')
nltk.download('stopwords')

• or, if that fails on a Mac, use run python3 down.py to collect the desired nltk resource files.
• pip3 install networkx
• pip3 install requests
• pip3 install graphviz, also ensure .gv files can be viewed
• pip3 install stanfordnlp parser
• Note that stanfordnlp requires torch binaries which are easier to instal with ````anaconda```.

Tested with the above on a Mac, with macOS Mojave and Catalina and on Ubuntu Linux 18.x.

Running it:

in a shell window, run

start_server.sh

in another shell window, start with

python3 -i tests.py

and then interactively, at the ">>>" prompt, try

>>> test1()
>>> test2()
>>> ...
>>> test9()
>>> test12()
>>> test0()

text file inputs (including the US Constitution const.txt) are in the folder

Handling PDF documents

The easiest way to do this is to install pdftotext, which is part of Poppler tools.

If pdftotext is installed, you can place a file like textrank.pdf already in subdirectory pdfs/ and try something similar to:

Change setting in file params.py to use the system with other global parameter settings.

Alternative NLP toolkit

Optionally, you can activate the alternative Stanford CoreNLP toolkit as follows:

• install Stanford CoreNLP and unzip in a derictory of your choice (ag., the local directory)
• edit if needed start_parser.sh with the location of the parser directory
• override the params class and set corenlp=True

Note however that the Stanford CoreNLP is GPL-licensed, which can place restrictions on proprietary software activating this option.

• pip3 install text_graph_crafts

The second is activated with

python3 -i qpro.py

or the shorthand script qgo.

It requires SWI-Prolog to be installed and available in the path as the executable swipl and the Python to Prolog interface pyswip, to be installed with

pip3 install pyswip

It activates a Prolog process to which Python sends interactively queries about a selected document. Answers are computed by Prolog and then, if the parameter quiet is off, spoken using the say OS-level facility (available on OS X and Linux machines.

Prolog relation files, generated on the Python side are associated to each document as well as the queries about it. They are stored in the same directory as the document.

Try

>>> t1() 
...
>>> t9()
>>> t0()

or

>>> chat('const')

to interactively chat about the US Constitution. The same
for other documents in the examples folder.

### Handling PDF documents

The easiest way to do this is to install *pdftotext*, which is part of [Poppler tools](https://poppler.freedesktop.org/).

If pdftotext is installed, you can place a file like *textrank.pdf*
already in subdirectory pdfs/ and try something similar to:

pdf_chat('textrank')

which activates a dialog about the TextRank paper. Also

pdf_chat('logrank')

activates a dialog about *pdfs/logrank.pdf*, which describes
the architecture of the current system.

Change setting in file params.py to use the system with
other global parameter settings.
