I want to find the subject from a sentence using Spacy
. The code below is working fine and giving a dependency tree.
import spacy
from nltk import Tree
en_nlp = spacy.load('en')
doc = en_nlp("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.")
def to_nltk_tree(node):
if node.n_lefts + node.n_rights > 0:
return Tree(node.orth_, [to_nltk_tree(child) for child in node.children])
else:
return node.orth_
[to_nltk_tree(sent.root).pretty_print() for sent in doc.sents]
From this dependency tree code, Can I find the subject of this sentence?
I'm not sure whether you want to write code using the nltk parse tree (see How to identify the subject of a sentence? ). But, spacy also generates this with the 'nsubj' label of the word.dep_ property.
import spacy
from nltk import Tree
en_nlp = spacy.load('en')
doc = en_nlp("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.")
sentence = next(doc.sents)
for word in sentence:
... print "%s:%s" % (word,word.dep_)
...
The:det
quick:amod
brown:amod
fox:nsubj
jumps:ROOT
over:prep
the:det
lazy:amod
dog:pobj
Reminder that there could more complicated situations where there is more than one.
>>> doc2 = en_nlp(u'When we study hard, we usually do well.')
>>> sentence2 = next(doc2.sents)
>>> for word in sentence2:
... print "%s:%s" %(word,word.dep_)
...
When:advmod
we:nsubj
study:advcl
hard:advmod
,:punct
we:nsubj
usually:advmod
do:ROOT
well:advmod
.:punct
