MasKIT
Pseudonymization of Czech legal texts

Introduction

MasKIT is an on-line tool and REST API service for anonymization (pseudonymization) of Czech legal texts. Taking a plain text as input (e.g., a letter sent by a legal authority to a citizen), it runs external services for dependency parsing and named entity recognition and then identifies and replaces personal information in the text.
