2.6.15. NEAR
NEAR
The NEAR condition is fulfilled, if the distance of the matched annotation to an annotation of
the given type is within a given interval. The direction is defined by a boolean parameter, whose
default value is set to true, therefore searching forward. By default this condition works on an
unfiltered index. An optional fifth boolean parameter can be set to true to get the condition being
evaluated on a filtered index.
2.6.15.1. Definition:
NEAR(TypeExpression,NumberExpression,NumberExpression
(,BooleanExpression(,BooleanExpression)?)?)
2.6.15.2. Example:
2.6.16. NOT
Paragraph{NEAR(Headline,0,10,false)->MARK(NoHeadline)};
A Paragraph that starts at most ten tokens after a Headline annotation is annotated with the
NoHeadline annotation.
The NOT condition negates the result of its contained condition.
2.6.16.1. Definition:
"-"Condition
2.6.16.2. Example:
2.6.17. OR
Paragraph{-PARTOF(Headline)->MARK(Headline)};
A Paragraph that is not part of a Headline annotation so far is annotated with a Headline annotation.
The OR Condition is a composed condition and evaluates true, if at least one contained condition is
evaluated true.
2.6.17.1. Definition:
OR(Condition1,...,ConditionN)
2.6.17.2. Example:
Paragraph{OR(PARTOF(Headline),CONTAINS(Keyword))
->MARK(ImportantParagraph)};
In this example a Paragraph is annotated with the ImportantParagraph annotation, if it is a Headline
or contains Keyword annotations.
