Attempto Parsing Engine (APE)

The source code of the Attempto Parsing Engine (APE) plus some related tools is available under the GNU Lesser General Public License, on GitHub:

APE is written in Prolog, specifically SWI-Prolog. In order to use APE, you must install SWI-Prolog and its packages (minimally: clib, sgml and http) first. Recent versions of SWI-Prolog (5.6.57 and higher) should be OK. SWI-Prolog is available in a pre-compiled form for Windows, Mac OS X and many Linux distributions.

There is an easy-to-use command-line tool ape.exe, which provides an interface to APE and the other modules. For example, executing:

./ape.exe -text "Every man is a human." -solo drsxml

will output the DRS of the ACE sentence "Every man is a human." in XML.

To compile this command-line tool, just execute make_exe.sh (or make_exe.bat, if you are using Windows).

APE also comes with a Java interface.

Furthermore, there is a content words lexicon with ~100,000 entries under the GNU General Public License.
