Annif is a subject indexing toolkit developed by the National Library of Finland: https://github.com/NatLibFi/Annif

Last November we organized a survey for Annif users, and now the results have been published: https://www.doria.fi/bitstream/handle/10024/190930/Annif%20Users%20Survey.pdf

The report includes an overview of:
• The vocabularies and datasets that are used with Annif
• The workflows that Annif is integrated with
• The problems Annif users are facing

The average ratings for various aspects and features of Annif given by users are shown. In short, in a scale from 1 to 5, the ratings are:
• Overall: 4.4
• Features and functions: 4.1
• Documentation: 4.5
• Smoothness of initial setup: 4.2
• Usability: 4.4
• Achieved quality of subject suggestions: 3.6

The survey also gathered user views on the improvements and new features, which are briefly discussed in the report.

That is incredibly useful tool ,it is exactly what I wanted, and I hope that you can give me structured results over the API endpoint. Before I was using the LLM but it wasn't deterministic. It seems that it is tool that does exactly very deterministic results.

Tried installing, it seems like someone took care that users cannot install it easy. Where is corpora for English language?

Annif is just a tool. The intention is that users have their own vocabulary and corpora which they use to train their own Annif models. But the (public) corpora and vocabularies we use are here: https://github.com/NatLibFi/Annif-corpora

In the repo there are Finnish, Swedish and English documents indexed with the General Finnish Ontology and some other vocabularies; some txt documents are directly included and some are obtainable with Makefiles.

There is no instruction how do I install English set that I can actually get an index. Do you know how?
