A Java distributed Chinese word segmentation library offering multiple dictionary-based segmentation algorithms with ngram-based disambiguation. It recognizes named entities, dates, and numbers, and integrates with Lucene, Solr, and ElasticSearch.

Use cases

• segment chinese text into words in java
• tokenize chinese for full-text search indexing
• extract named entities like person and place names from chinese text
• compute text similarity between chinese documents
• add chinese word segmentation to elasticsearch or solr
• count word frequency and tag part of speech in chinese text

When to choose

• you need Chinese word segmentation in a JVM application
• you want Lucene, Solr, or ElasticSearch integration out of the box
• you need custom user dictionaries and multiple segmentation algorithms

When to avoid

• you need segmentation for languages other than Chinese
• you require actively maintained software with recent updates
• you need deep-learning-based neural segmentation models
