EntityExtractionParams

class EntityExtractionParams : NSObject

An object that contains various parameters that can be customized on each entity extraction call.

  • Reference time based on which relative dates (e.g. “tomorrow”) should be interpreted, in milliseconds from the epoch of 1970-01-01T00:00:00 (UTC timezone). A nil value means that the current time (when entity extraction is invoked) should be used.

    Declaration

    Swift

    var referenceTime: Date? { get set }

  • Reference time zone based on which relative dates (e.g. “tomorrow”) should be interpreted. If this is not set, the current time zone (when entity extraction is invoked) will be used.

    Declaration

    Swift

    var referenceTimeZone: TimeZone? { get set }

  • A preferred locale that can be used to disambiguate potential values for date-time entities. For example, “01/02/2000” is ambiguous and could refer to either January 2nd or February 1st, but a locale preference could help pick the right one (‘en-US’ would pick the former, and ‘en-UK’ the latter). The default value is the device’s system locale. The supported locales match the list of supported models. So any of (or a subset of): {'en-*'} ({ ‘en-US’}, {'en-UK'}, { ‘en-CA’}, …), {'ar-*'}, { ‘de-’}, {“` ‘es-’}, {'fr-*'}, { ‘it-’}, {”` ‘ja-’}, { 'ko-*'}, { ‘nl-’}, {“` ‘pl-’}, {'pt-*'}, { ‘ru-’}, {”` ‘th-’}, {'tr-*'}, { ‘zh-*’}

    Declaration

    Swift

    var preferredLocale: Locale! { get set }

  • The subset of entity types (EntityExtractionEntityType) that will be detected by the entity extractor. Types not present in the set will not be returned even if they are present in the input text. nil sets will be reset to the default set returned by MLKEntityExtractionEntityTypeAllEntityTypes.

    Declaration

    Swift

    var typesFilter: Set<EntityType>! { get set }

  • Initializes an allocated EntityExtractionParams instance with the default values. Sets the referenceTime and referenceTimezone to nil and sets the typesFilter to a set containing all values returned from MLKEntityExtractionEntityTypeAllEntityTypes.

    Declaration

    Swift

    init()
