使用Regex进行句子分割

标签: python regex text-segmentation

我有很少的短信(SMS),我想用句点('。')作为分隔符对它们进行分段。我无法处理以下类型的消息。如何在Python中使用Regex对这些消息进行分段。

分割前:

'hyper count 16.8mmol/l.plz review b4 5pm.just to inform u.thank u'
'no of beds 8.please inform person in-charge.tq'

分割后:

'hyper count 16.8mmol/l' 'plz review b4 5pm' 'just to inform u' 'thank u'
'no of beds 8' 'please inform person in-charge' 'tq'

每一行都是单独的消息

更新:

我正在进行自然语言处理,我认为可以将'16.8mmmol/l''no of beds 8.2 cups of tea.'视为一样。 80%的准确度对我来说已足够,但我希望尽可能减少False Positive

几个星期前,我搜索了一个正则表达式,它会捕获表示字符串中数字的每个字符串,无论数字的编写形式如何,即使是科学记数法中的数字,甚至是带有逗号的印度数字:see { {3}}

我在以下代码中使用此正则表达式来解决您的问题。

与其他答案相反,在我的解决方案中,'8。'中的点不被视为必须进行拆分的点,因为它可以被读作浮点数点后没有数字。

import re

regx = re.compile('(?<![\d.])(?!\.\.)'
                  '(?<![\d.][eE][+-])(?<![\d.][eE])(?<!\d[.,])'
                  '' #---------------------------------
                  '([+-]?)'
                  '(?![\d,]*?\.[\d,]*?\.[\d,]*?)'
                  '(?:0|,(?=0)|(?<!\d),)*'
                  '(?:'
                  '((?:\d(?!\.[1-9])|,(?=\d))+)[.,]?'
                  '|\.(0)'
                  '|((?<!\.)\.\d+?)'
                  '|([\d,]+\.\d+?))'
                  '0*'
                  '' #---------------------------------
                  '(?:'
                  '([eE][+-]?)(?:0|,(?=0))*'
                  '(?:'
                  '(?!0+(?=\D|\Z))((?:\d(?!\.[1-9])|,(?=\d))+)[.,]?'
                  '|((?<!\.)\.(?!0+(?=\D|\Z))\d+?)'
                  '|([\d,]+\.(?!0+(?=\D|\Z))\d+?))'
                  '0*'
                  ')?'
                  '' #---------------------------------
                  '(?![.,]?\d)')



simpler_regex = re.compile('(?<![\d.])0*(?:'
                           '(\d+)\.?|\.(0)'
                           '|(\.\d+?)|(\d+\.\d+?)'
                           ')0*(?![\d.])')


def split_outnumb(string, regx=regx, a=0):
    excluded_pos = [x for mat in regx.finditer(string) for x in range(*mat.span()) if string[x]=='.']
    li = []
    for xdot in (x for x,c in enumerate(string) if c=='.' and x not in excluded_pos):
        li.append(string[a:xdot])
        a = xdot + 1
    li.append(string[a:])
    return li





for sentence in ('hyper count 16.8mmol/l.plz review b4 5pm.just to inform u.thank u',
                 'no of beds 8.please inform person in-charge.tq',
                 'no of beds 8.2 cups of tea.tarabada',
                 'this number .977 is a float',
                 'numbers 214.21E+45 , 478945.E-201 and .12478E+02 are in scientific.notation',
                 'an indian number 12,45,782.258 in this.sentence and 45,78,325. is another',
                 'no dot in this sentence',
                 ''):
    print 'sentence         =',sentence
    print 'splitted eyquem  =',split_outnumb(sentence)
    print 'splitted eyqu 2  =',split_outnumb(sentence,regx=simpler_regex)
    print 'splitted gurney  =',re.split(r"\.(?!\d)", sentence)
    print 'splitted stema   =',re.split('(?<!\d)\.|\.(?!\d)',sentence)
    print

我添加了一个 simpler_regex 检测数字,来自this thread的我的帖子

我没有用科学记数法检测出印度数字和数字,但它实际上给出了相同的结果

答案 1 :(得分:2)

你可以使用负前瞻断言来匹配“。”没有后跟数字,并使用re.split

>>> import re
>>> splitter = r"\.(?!\d)"
>>> s = 'hyper count 16.8mmol/l.plz review b4 5pm.just to inform u.thank u'
>>> re.split(splitter, s)
['hyper count 16.8mmol/l', 'plz review b4 5pm', 'just to inform u', 'thank u']
>>> s = 'no of beds 8.please inform person in-charge.tq'
>>> re.split(splitter, s)
['no of beds 8', 'please inform person in-charge', 'tq']

答案 2 :(得分:1)

怎么样?
re.split('(?<!\d)\.|\.(?!\d)', 'hyper count 16.8mmol/l.plz review b4 5pm.just to inform u.thank u')

外观确保在一侧或另一侧不是数字。所以这也涵盖了16.8案例。如果两边都有数字,则表达式不会拆分。

答案 3 :(得分:0)

这取决于您的确切句子,但您可以尝试:

.*?[a-zA-Z0-9]\.(?!\d)

看看是否有效。这将保留在引号中,但您可以根据需要将其删除。

"...".split(".")

split是一个Python内置函数,用于分隔特定字符的字符串。
