Package net.sourceforge.nite.gui.transcriptionviewer

This package supports displaying transcriptions of observations, including any annotations that have been created on top of the transcriptions.

Description

Interface Summary

DisplayStrategy	DisplayStrategy implementations are used as delegates to display information annotated on speech transcriptions in a NTranscriptionView.
TranscriptionToTextDelegate	Implementations of this interface will derive the text representation for elements from the transcription layer.
TransToAnnoMap	TransToAnnoMap implementations define the relations between transcription elements (e.g.

Class Summary

AbstractDisplayStrategy	This class provides a basic implementation of the DisplayStrategy interface.
DefaultTransToAnnoMap	The default implementation of TransToAnnoMap depends on a straightforward parent-child relation between annotation elements and transcription text.
NTranscriptionView	NTranscriptionView is a text pane used for customizable display of annotated speech transcripts, also providing flexible selection behaviour.
OntologyColourDisplayStrategy	SLIGHTLY GENERIC A trick: given an ontology, an element is displayed in the colour determined by its first pointer to an element in that ontology.
StringInsertDisplayStrategy	This DisplayStrategy implementation shows annotation elements in the transcription text by inserting text before the first and/or after the last NTextElement that is related to the annotation element.
TextStyleDisplayStrategy	This DisplayStrategy implementation shows annotation elements in the transcription text by changing the style (font, color, etc) of the text.

Package net.sourceforge.nite.gui.transcriptionviewer Description

This package supports displaying transcriptions of observations, including any annotations that have been created on top of the transcriptions. The main elements of functionality in the package are:

• Display transcriptions: Most NXT corpora have a layer that contains the transcriptions of speech of the participants. The NTranscriptionView class can be parametrized to display these transcriptions in several ways, possibly based on existing segmentations of the transcription.
• Display annotations defined on the transcriptions: NXT corpora usually contain several annotation layers that are directly related to the speech transcriptions, e.g. dialogue acts, named entities or referents. The NTranscriptionView class can display these annotations within the text, using configurable DisplayStrategy implementations.
• Support for selection of transcription fragments and/or annotation elements: A number of selection strategies have been implemented (speech, annotations, or both; multiple agents or single agents; single words or phrases; with or without going across segment boundaries, etc).

The best way to start using this package is to read the documentation of NTranscriptionView. A table with a complete overview of the classes in this packages can be found below.

Table of overview

This table is not yet properly completed. Somebody please write this one, using the (more complete) documentations of NTranscriptionView, DisplayStrategy, TransToAnnoMap, TranscriptionDisplayDelegate!!!

NTranscriptionView		Main class of this package. A descendant of JTextPane/NTextArea that can be parametrized to display speech transcriptions and annotations defined on these transcriptions.
	Which transcription elements should be displayed?	setTranscriptionLayer setSegmentationElementName setdisplaySegments
	How to display the speech elements? (text, attribute, or anything else)	setTranscriptionDisplayDelegate Display of transscription elements default: use text content otherwise: use implementation of delegate (list delegate classes for this)
DisplayStrategy		A delegate interface. Implementations of this interface are used to determine how a particular type of annotation element defined on the transcriptions should be displayed.
	TextStyleDisplayStrategy	This display strategy visualizes annotation elements of a certain type by changing the text style (italic, bold, etc) of all speech text related to the annotation element.
	StringInsertDisplayStrategy	This display strategy visualizes annotation elements of a certain type by inserting cusomizable text before and/or after the speech text related to that annotation element.

This package has been developed at the University of Twente.
