The JavaNLP repository makes use of various external (3rd party) libraries.
This is a collection of Javadocs for some of those libraries, and a brief set
of explanations of what the libraries do. If you're using a library that's not
mentioned here, email Joseph Smarr.
See the JavaNLP Javadocs for more
information on what code uses what libs.
Packages are listed in alphabetical order. Link to API and optionally
links to other information.
CERN numerics collection. Official supplier of matrices to the
Stanford NLP group. Use this for matrices unless there's a good
reason not to. It also
incorporates other people's packages for Strings, concurrency, etc.

Version: 1.0.1 of Sep 2000 [current, Aug 2002].
Another regular expression expression package (slower and less complete

remove this if we haven't already.
