How do I get the stanford NER plugin working with GATE?
I am new to GATE (version 8.0) and am trying to get Stanford NER to work as part of a processing pipeline.
If I just do a search for Stanford in plugins, I don't see it:
I find conflicting information on the internet on how to add it.
I know there is this plugin file. I can also see that the GATE docs have the StanfordNER plugin listed . I saw this on the stanford mailing list. Plus I saw this old post from stackoverflow: Stanford_CoreNLP plugin for gate
How can I install Stanford NER and work with GATE?

I am new to GATE (version 8.0)
The plugin Stanford_CoreNLP
was introduced in June 2014 after the release of GATE version 8.0, so you need to download a later night snapshot create and install that instead. In version 8.0, the Stanford POS tagger and parser were available as separate plugins (as shown in the screenshot), but the NER tools were not included at this point.
Typically, if you want to make sure that you are looking for the correct version of the GATE user manual, you should access it through the Help menu in GATE Developer. The link on the GATE website refers to the most recent snapshot, not the numbered version.
Edit Jun 2015: GATE developer version 8.1 has now been released which includes the plugin Stanford_CoreNLP
.

You must download the Stanford CoreNLP plugin. Then you need to create a new processing resource:
Then you need to put your PR into the pipeline. For example, here I am replacing the traditional NE Transducer from Stanford NER:
Finally, try on a case and you have the NE annotation.
