Modularized Tokenizer

Definition

A modularized tokenizer is a component within natural language processing systems responsible for breaking down text into smaller units, such as words or subword tokens, in a structured and adaptable manner. Its design allows for independent modification or replacement of its sub-components, like normalization rules or segmentation algorithms, without impacting the entire system. This approach promotes flexibility and easier maintenance for text processing pipelines. It facilitates tailored text preparation for various linguistic tasks.
