Description

For some reason MATCHING cant find the third {NP} ?
As you can see there is 3 NP chunks, so it should work !! Any idea ?


In [120]: s1 = Sentence(parse('The students consider the course a challenge'))

In [121]: s1.string
Out[121]: u'The students consider the course a challenge'

In [122]: m = match('{NP} {VB*} {NP} {NP}', s1)

In [123]: m.constituents()
Out[123]: [Chunk('The students/NP'), Chunk('consider/VP'), Chunk('the course/NP')]

In [125]: s1.chunks
Out[125]: 
 [Chunk('The students/NP'),
  Chunk('consider/VP'),
 Chunk('the course/NP'),
 Chunk('a challenge/NP')]

 In [126]: pprint(s1)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the example with parse(), Sentence, and match('{NP} {VB*} {NP} {NP}', s1), then trace the matching entry point and how constituents are returned. Done means the match includes all three NP chunks, including “a challenge,” with a regression check for this example.
