Hi Jeff,<div><br></div><div>this is a good paper on sentence segmentation -- the best I've come across. You might want to check out the related work there too.</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://aclweb.org/anthology-new/N/N09/N09-2061.pdf">http://aclweb.org/anthology-new/N/N09/N09-2061.pdf</a></div>

<div><br></div><div>Mostly we've been using hand-crafted tools written in Python. I have checked out what NLTK offers but from what I've seen there's not anything terribly accurate in it (fails on obvious common cases like some honorifics). We did develop a decision tree based model using Weka for Spanish text. I'd be happy to do this again for English but wanted to see if there's something good already out there.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks in advance!</div>
