Japanese (kuromoji) Analysis for Elasticsearch

The Japanese (kuromoji) Analysis plugin integrates Lucene kuromoji analysis module into elasticsearch.

In order to install the plugin, run:

bin/plugin -install elasticsearch/elasticsearch-analysis-kuromoji/2.4.1

You need to install a version matching your Elasticsearch version:

Usage

Analyzer : kuromoji

An analyzer of type kuromoji. This analyzer is the following tokenizer and tokenfilter combination.

  • kuromoji_tokenizer : Kuromoji Tokenizer
  • kuromoji_baseform : Kuromoji BasicFormFilter (TokenFilter)
  • kuromoji_part_of_speech : Kuromoji Part of Speech Stop Filter (TokenFilter)
  • cjk_width : CJK Width Filter (TokenFilter)
  • stop : Stop Filter (TokenFilter)
  • kuromoji_stemmer : Kuromoji Katakana Stemmer Filter(TokenFilter)
  • lowercase : LowerCase Filter (TokenFilter)

CharFilter : kuromoji_iteration_mark

A charfilter of type kuromoji_iteration_mark. This charfilter is Normalizes Japanese horizontal iteration marks (odoriji) to their expanded form.

The following ar setting that can be set for a kuromoji_iteration_mark charfilter type:

Setting Description Default value
normalize_kanji indicates whether kanji iteration marks should be normalized true
normalize_kana indicates whether kanji iteration marks should be normalized true

Tokenizer : kuromoji_tokenizer

A tokenizer of type kuromoji_tokenizer.

The following are settings that can be set for a kuromoji_tokenizer tokenizer type:

Setting Description Default value
mode Tokenization mode: this determines how the tokenizer handles compound and unknown words. normal and search, extended search
discard_punctuation true if punctuation tokens should be dropped from the output. true
user_dict set User Dictionary file

Tokenization mode

The mode is three types.

  • normal : Ordinary segmentation: no decomposition for compounds

  • search : Segmentation geared towards search: this includes a decompounding process for long nouns, also including the full compound token as a synonym.

  • extended : Extended mode outputs unigrams for unknown words.

Difference tokenization mode outputs

Input text is 関西国際空港 and アブラカダブラ.

mode 関西国際空港 アブラカダブラ
normal 関西国際空港 アブラカダブラ
search 関西 関西国際空港 国際 空港 アブラカダブラ
extended 関西 国際 空港

User Dictionary

Kuromoji tokenizer use MecCab-IPADIC dictionary by default. And Kuromoji is added an entry of dictionary to define by user; this is User Dictionary. User Dictionary entries are defined using the following CSV format:

<text>,<token 1> ... <token n>,<reading 1> ... <reading n>,<part-of-speech tag>

Dictionary Example

東京スカイツリー,東京 スカイツリー,トウキョウ スカイツリー,カスタム名詞

To use User Dictionary set file path to user_dict attribute. User Dictionary file is placed ES_HOME/config directory.
