| <p>uimaFIT provides Java annotations for describing UIMA components |
| which can be used to directly describe the UIMA components in Java code |
| without the need for traditional UIMA XML descriptors. This greatly |
| simplifies refactoring a component definition (e.g., changing a |
| configuration parameter name). uimaFIT also makes it easy to instantiate |
| UIMA components without using XML descriptor files by providing |
| convenient factory methods. This makes uimaFIT an ideal library for |
| testing UIMA components because the component can be easily instantiated |
| and invoked without requiring a descriptor file to be created first. |
| uimaFIT is very useful in research environments in which |
| programmatic/dynamic instantiation of UIMA pipelines can simplify |
| experimentation. For example, when performing 10-fold cross-validation |
| across a number of experimental conditions, it can be quite laborious |
| to create a different set of descriptor files for each run, or even a |
| script which generates such descriptor files. uimaFIT is type system |
| agnostic and does not depend on (or provide) a specific type system |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| uimaFIT is contributed as a multi-module Maven project. |
