How to get a node in a tree by its label in nltk python?

问题

I have a tree:

(S  
    (WH-QUERY Which)  
    (FLIGHT-NP   
        (FLIGHT-CNP  
            (FLIGHT-CNP (FLIGHT-N flight))  
            (FLIGHT-DEST to (CITY-NP (CITY-NAME Hue) (CITY-N city)))))  
    (FLIGHT-VP  
        (FLIGHT-V arrives)  
        (FLIGHT-TIME (P-TIME at) (TIME-MOD 20:00HR))))  

I want to get a specific node by its label in nltk. For example, I have label "CITY-NAME", and I want to get the node (CITY-NAM Hue). How can I achieve this?

回答1:

One way to do it is to walk the tree searching for nodes that match:

for subtree in tree.subtrees():
     if subtree.label() == 'CITY-NAME':
          print subtree.leaves()

Look at the _get_node method in the function.
