Carabao Language Kit 1.2.0.0 released

The version 1.2.0.0 is now available for download.

Fixed:

• Unknown patterns were translated as hypernyms


• Regression: certain category-based sequences were omitted on second execution because of a malfunctioning guess scan caching mechanism


• In analytical mode (Carabao DeepAnalyzer), there was a mismatch between word index number and an idiom member index, in sentences with attached tokens such as 'em, 'm


• When copying a token with 1 rule units or less, the text is always reset to the original

Added:

• Capability to match numbers as patterns


• When a translation is not found, the engine tries to fall back to a matching hypernym instead


• New methods to Carabao DeepAnalyzer that enable accessing the members of the detected idioms


• New methods to Carabao CDA that enable accessing the unknown heuristics table


• New sequences


• Russian morphological exceptions

Improved:

• If an "unknown pattern" is forced to match a known word, it will not create a new guess if a guess with a same hypernym already exists. For example, if you force to check, whether a known word can be a city, a new record will not be created, if there is already a guess with a known city
  Automatic input language switching in locator fields
  
• Locator fields are pre-filled with the list of all existing languages in the database, eliminating the need to jump to the next language
