This release builds on the infrastructure added in v1.1 and now includes attribute labels and a basic set of rules for three Generic Attributes. These can be used by developers to tag use case specific attributes not covered by the built-in attribute types. Developers can add their own marker terms for these to leverage attribute expansion to flag syntactically "affected" portions of a sentence. A basic set of expansion rules are included for these generic attributes.
For example, we've helped customers in the healthcare industry add marker terms such as "mother", "brother", etc. so that mentions of "family history" can be identified in the text: "Patient mentioned mother suffered a stroke 10y ago, but denied experiencing chest pain himself"

Furthermore, this release includes one of the biggest extensions of the Japanese language model, significantly extending its support for Attributes including measurements and time expressions. To accommodate the nature of the language in which a single entity can include several measurements, we have enabled the measurement spans to include more than two pairs of value & unit when necessary.

See list of supported attributes for the most up-to-date information.
