Compiling Error for tmt-0.4.0 "Stanford topic modeling toolbox"

[Mohammad Akbari]

Hi All

I am new in Scala and topic modeling. I have tried to use the Stanford Topic Modeling Toolbox called TMT. 

I have download it form http://nlp.stanford.edu/software/tmt/tmt-0.4/

However, No chance for me to have a competed compile.  I have used different method as follow:

1- Use maven to compile it, as the programmer suggested, but the file pom.xml did not exist in the project. :(

2- I have found some .sbt files and tried www.scala-sbt.org/ . However I have got the following error 

  [info] Resolving org.scala-sbt#test-interface;1.0 ...

  [info] Resolving org.scala-sbt#main-settings;0.13.0 ...

  [info] Resolving org.scala-sbt#apply-macro;0.13.0 ...

[info] Done updating.

D:\work\TOOLS\Stanford Topic Modeling\sourcecode\build.sbt:49: error: not found:

 value ProguardPlugin

seq(ProguardPlugin.proguardSettings :_*)

    ^

[error] Type error in expression

Project loading failed: (r)etry, (q)uit, (l)ast, or (i)gnore? q

3- finally I used eclipse and It needs following packages

import scalanlp.collection.LazyIterable;

import scalanlp.text.tokenize.Tokenizer;

import scalanlp.util.Index;

and some others

Could you give me some hint about this issue? How can I compile it? Where can I find the packages ?

Thanks in advance.

So, first, Stanford TMT is abandonware. I recommend finding a
different solution, like Factorie or Mallet.

But...

1) just delete that line from the sbt build file
2) SBT should automatically download the relevant (old) versions of
ScalaNLP-core. You might need to look into the sbt eclipse plugin
(again, an older version) if you want to do development that way.

A while back, I created a little repo for comparing Factorie and Mallet topic modeling that might be useful:
