Abstract

Tokenization is the task of chopping it up into pieces, called tokens, perhaps at the same time throwing away certain characters, such as punctuation. A token is an instance of token a sequence of characters in some particular document that are grouped together as a useful semantic unit for processing. New software tool and algorithm to support the IRS at tokenization process are presented. Our proposed tool will filter out the three computer character Sequences: IP-Addresses, Web URLs, Date, and Email Addresses. Our tool will use the pattern matching algorithms and filtration methods. After this process, the IRS can start a new tokenization process on the new retrieved text which will be free of these sequences.
