Proceedings of the Sixth Arabic Natural Language Processing Workshop
QuranTree.jl is an open-source package for working with the Quranic Arabic Corpus (Dukes and Habash, 2010). It aims to provide Julia APIs as an alternative to the Java APIs of JQuranTree. QuranTree.jl currently offers functionalities for intuitive indexing of chapters, verses, words and parts of words of the Qur’an; for creating custom transliteration; for character dediacritization and normalization; and, for handling the morphological features. Lastly, it can work well with Julia’s TextAnalysis.jl and Python’s CAMeL Tools.
