SHORT DESCRIPTION
Unstructured Information Management Architecture (UIMA) is a component framework to analyze unstructured content such as text, audio and video. This is originally developed by IBM.
UIMA enables applications to be decomposed into components, for example “language identification” => “language specific segmentation” => “sentence boundary detection” => Each component implements interfaces defined by the framework and provides self describing metadata via XML descriptor files. Also provides capabilities to wrap components as network services, and can scale to very large volumes by replicating processing pipelines over a cluster of networked nodes.
