Struct TemporalAligner 

pub struct TemporalAligner {
    pub document_date: Option<DateTime<Utc>>,
    pub infer_from_document_date: bool,
    pub default_duration: Option<Duration>,
}

Aligns entities across documents with different publication dates.

When processing news from different dates, the same role might have different values depending on when the document was written.

Fields

document_date: Option<DateTime<Utc>>

Document timestamp to use as reference

infer_from_document_date: bool

Whether to infer validity from document date

default_duration: Option<Duration>

Default validity duration for inferred entities

impl TemporalAligner

pub fn for_document(date: DateTime<Utc>) -> Self
