W?{REGEXP("(?i)(rhode)")}
SPACE*?
W?{REGEXP("(?i)(island)") ->MARK(EntityType,1,2,3)};
US states[edit]

PACKAGE uima.ruta.example;
DECLARE VarA;
DECLARE VarB;
DECLARE VarC;
W?{REGEXP("(?i)(north|east|south|west|new|alabama|alaska|arizona|arkansas|california|colorado|connecticut|delaware|florida|georgia|hawaii|idaho|illinois|indiana|iowa|kansas|kentucky|louisiana|maine|maryland|massachusetts|michigan|minnesota|mississippi|missouri|montana|nebraska|nevada|ohio|oklahoma|oregon|pennsylvania|rhode|tennessee|texas|utah|vermont|virginia|washington|wisconsin|wyoming)")}
SPACE*?
W?{REGEXP("(?i)(hampshire|york|jersey|island|mexico|carolina|dakota|virginia)") ->MARK(EntityType,1,2,3)};
US state abbreviations[edit]
The following Apache Ruta script extracts the abbreviations of the US states.
PACKAGE uima.ruta.example;
DECLARE VarA;
DECLARE VarB;
DECLARE VarC;
W{REGEXP("(AL|AK|AZ|AR|CA|CO|CT|DE|FL|GA|HI|ID|IL|IN|IA|KS|KY|LA|ME|MD|MA|MI|MN|MS|MO|MT|NE|NV|NH|NJ|NM|NY|NC|ND|OH|OK|OR|PA|RI|SC|SD|TN|TX|UT|VT|VA|WA|WV|WI|WY)") ->MARK(EntityType,1)};
Year[edit]
The following Apache Ruta script extracts a 4-digit year between 1900 and 2099.
PACKAGE uima.ruta.example;
NUM{REGEXP("19..|20..") -> CREATE(EntityType,1,5,"entityType" = "YEAR")};
Vehicle identification number (VIN)[edit]
The following Apache Ruta script extracts a vehicle identification number in the following format: one digit, four letters, two digits, four letters, and six digits. For example, 1HGBH41JXMN109186.
PACKAGE uima.ruta.example;
DECLARE VarA;
DECLARE VarB;
DECLARE VarC;
NUM {REGEXP(".") }
W{REGEXP("....") }
NUM {REGEXP("..") }
W{REGEXP("....") }
NUM{REGEXP("......") ->MARK(EntityType,1,5)}
9-digit account number[edit]
The following examples show different ways of creating the entity and recognizing a 9-digit account number. For example, Account:123450000
PACKAGE uima.ruta.example;
DECLARE VarA;
NUM{REGEXP(".........") -> MARK(VarA), MARK(EntityType,1,1), UNMARK(VarA)};
PACKAGE uima.ruta.example;
NUM{REGEXP(".........") -> CREATE(EntityType,1,"entityType" = "AccNum")};
PACKAGE uima.ruta.example;
NUM{REGEXP(".........") -> MARK(EntityType,1)};
Phone number[edit]
The following Apache Ruta script extracts 6-digit and 10-digit phone numbers.
//US Phone number entity type
PACKAGE uima.ruta.example;
DECLARE VarA;
DECLARE VarB;
DECLARE VarC;
//With Area code and delimeter
//222-555-6789, 222.555.6789, 222 555 6789
NUM{REGEXP("...")}
("-"|"."|SPACE)?
NUM{REGEXP("...")}
("-"|"."|SPACE?)?
NUM{REGEXP("....") ->CREATE(EntityType,1,5,"entityType" = "PhoneNumber")};
//Area code no delimeter
//2225556789
NUM{REGEXP("..........") ->CREATE(EntityType,1,5,"entityType" = "PhoneNumber")};
//No Area code with delimeter
//555.6789, 555-6789, 555 6789
NUM{REGEXP("...")}
("-"|"."|SPACE?)?
NUM{REGEXP("....") ->CREATE(EntityType,1,5,"entityType" = "PhoneNumber")};
