history
Project history and usage
MITIE, the MIT Information Extraction library, is a C++ library and tool collection for information extraction tasks such as named-entity recognition and relation extraction. Davis King's dlib announcement introduced MITIE as a free information-extraction toolkit with a C API and a streaming command-line named-entity recognizer, with plans for additional language bindings and NLP tools.
How it is used
The GitHub project presents MITIE as a library first and a set of examples and command-line tools second. Its core is written in C++, but the project documents bindings for Python, R, Java, C, and MATLAB, with outside bindings for other languages. In practice, users build the shared library, download trained model files, run examples, or use tools such as `ner_stream`; the Homebrew package exposes demonstration and streaming executables for the smaller NLP tooling niche rather than a full application server.
