nn-search

nn-search is a Python-based application designed to help you find words and complex expressions in your documents. The program allows you to scan the entire document content and use advanced search criteria for identifying relevant text fragments.
Although the program can also find simple words and highlight them in the document, its purpose is to use grammatical tagging in order to analyze the text and various parts of speech.
This tool uses the Natural Language Toolkit platform in order to detect not only the word but also the context of the expression. The program uses Part-Of-Speech tagging to easily detect the expressions that are relevant for your research.
The interface of the application is easy to use and allows you to load the text from TXT or DOCX files. In order to find a certain item you need to specify the criteria and the view mode before clicking the Search button.
Although finding a word might be an easy task for most users, identifying an expression that meets multiple criteria requires additional knowledge. You have never used the POS tagging before, you should read the basic query tips provided by the developer.
The view mode is essential to locating the word or sentence in the analyzed text. For instance, the user can quickly generate an ordered list of matching words or view the paragraphs that include each occurrence.
You can view additional statistics such as the number of sentences and words in the main window. The POS-tags feature enables you to view the ones that are in use in the document and learn more about using them in your search.
The nn-search is a valuable tool for the users who need to research a certain topic and have to deal with large documents. Unlike an usual text editor, it can save you a lot of time by to detecting the phrases the you are looking for.
