class LightDeIdentification extends AnnotatorModel[LightDeIdentification] with HasSimpleAnnotate[LightDeIdentification] with LightDeIdentificationParams with DeidModelParams with MappingsColumnModel with CheckLicense

Light DeIdentification is a light version of DeIdentification. It replaces sensitive information in a text with obfuscated or masked fakers. It is designed to work with healthcare data, and it can be used to de-identify patient names, dates, and other sensitive information. It can also be used to obfuscate or mask any other type of sensitive information, such as doctor names, hospital names, and other types of sensitive information.

Additionally, it supports millions of embedded fakers and If desired, custom external fakers can be set with LightDeIdentificationParams.setCustomFakers .

It also supports multiple languages such as English, Spanish, French, German, and Arabic. And it supports multi-mode de-identification with LightDeIdentificationParams.setSelectiveObfuscationModes at the same time.

Example:

val documentAssembler = new DocumentAssembler()
  .setInputCol("text").setOutputCol("document")

val sentenceDetector = new SentenceDetector()
  .setInputCols(Array("document")).setOutputCol("sentence")

val tokenizer = new Tokenizer()
  .setInputCols(Array("sentence")).setOutputCol("token")

val embeddings = WordEmbeddingsModel.pretrained("embeddings_clinical", "en", "clinical/models")
  .setInputCols(Array("sentence", "token")).setOutputCol("embeddings")

val clinical_sensitive_entities = MedicalNerModel.pretrained("ner_deid_enriched", "en", "clinical/models")
  .setInputCols(Array("sentence", "token", "embeddings")).setOutputCol("ner")

val nerConverter = new NerConverterInternal()
  .setInputCols(Array("sentence", "token", "ner")).setOutputCol("chunk")

val deIdentification = new LightDeIdentification()
  .setInputCols(Array("chunk", "sentence")).setOutputCol("dei")
  .setMode("obfuscate")

Exceptions thrown

java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException If no Provider supports a SecureRandom implementation for specified algorithm name. See for more information and parameters DeidModelParams and LightDeIdentificationParams

Note

If the mode is set to obfuscate, the LightDeIdentification uses java.security.SecureRandom for generating fake data. You can select a generation algorithm by configuring the system environment variable SPARK_NLP_JSL_SEED_ALGORITHM. The chosen algorithm may impact the generation of fake data, performance, and potential blocking issues. For information about standard RNG algorithm names, refer to the SecureRandom section in the Number Generation Algorithm. The default algorithm is 'SHA1PRNG'.

    Param that indicates whether consistency should be enforced across different parts of a name (e.g., first name, middle name, last name). When set to true, the same transformation or obfuscation will be applied consistently to all parts of the same name entity, even if those parts appear separately.

    For example, if "John Smith" is obfuscated as "Liam Brown", then:

    • When the full name "John Smith" appears, it will be replaced with "Liam Brown"
    • When "John" or "Smith" appear individually, they will still be obfuscated as "Liam" and "Brown" respectively, ensuring consistency in name transformation.

    Whether to enforce consistent obfuscation across geographical entities: state, city, street, zip and phone.

    Whether to enforce consistent obfuscation across geographical entities: state, city, street, zip and phone.

    ## Functionality Overview This parameter enables intelligent geographical entity obfuscation that maintains realistic relationships between different geographic components. When enabled, the system ensures that obfuscated addresses form coherent, valid combinations rather than random replacements.

    ## Supported Entity Types The following geographical entities are processed with priority order: - **state** (Priority: 0) - US state names - **city** (Priority: 1) - City names - **zip** (Priority: 2) - Zip codes - **street** (Priority: 3) - Street addresses - **phone** (Priority: 4) - Phone numbers

    ## Language Requirement **IMPORTANT**: Geographic consistency is only applied when: - geoConsistency parameter is set to true AND - language parameter is set to en

    For non-English configurations, this feature is automatically disabled regardless of the parameter setting.

    ## Consistency Algorithm When geographical entities comes from the chunk columns:

    1. **Entity Grouping**: All geographic entities are identified and grouped by type 2. **Fake Address Selection**: A consistent set of fake US addresses is selected using hash-based deterministic selection to ensure reproducibility 3. **Priority-Based Mapping**: Entities are mapped to fake addresses following the priority order (state → city → zip → street → phone) 4. **Consistent Replacement**: All entities of the same type within a document use the same fake address pool, maintaining geographical coherence

    ## Parameter Interactions **IMPORTANT**: Enabling this parameter automatically disables: - keepTextSizeForObfuscation - Text size preservation is not maintained - consistentObfuscation - Standard consistency rules are overridden - file-based fakers

    This is necessary because geographic consistency requires specific fake address selection that may not preserve original text lengths or follow standard obfuscation patterns.

  95. def getFakeByHashcode(fakes: Seq[String], wordToReplace: String, entity: String, seed: Int): String

    Picks a fake from fakes by hashing the original word, so the same word always maps to the same fake for a given seed.

    Picks a fake from fakes by hashing the original word, so the same word always maps to the same fake for a given seed.

    The hash can land on the original word itself, which would silently leave the PHI in place. Small pools make this likely enough to matter: a two letter STATE has a 1 in 50 chance. When it happens the draw is repeated once with the next seed. The retry is deliberately not forced into a loop and the candidate list is never filtered, so the existing selection algorithm and its determinism stay intact; if the second draw collides as well the value is returned unchanged.

    Formatted entities (see BaseDeidParams.sameLengthFormattedEntities, for example ZIP or SSN) do not reach this method, they are obfuscated by generateFakeBySameLengthUsingHash which already guarantees a different value.

  146. val idBasedObfuscation: BooleanParam

    Whether to make obfuscation depend on the document ID.

    Whether to make obfuscation depend on the document ID. Currently this param is only valid for name-related entities (NAME, PATIENT, DOCTOR, SIGNING_PERSON, PERSON, CLIENT, FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME). It has no effect on other entities.

    The document ID is read from the id metadata of the document (the same id used for consistent date shifting). When enabled and a document ID is available, the fake name selection is derived from the combination of the document ID and the original name, which gives the following behavior:

    • Same document ID + same name -> same fake (consistent within a document).
    • Same document ID + different names -> different fakes.
    • Different document IDs + same name -> different fakes (a name is obfuscated differently across documents).

    When disabled, or when no document ID is available, name obfuscation falls back to the regular seed-based selection. It works together with genderAwareness and nationalityAwareness.

    Whether to use nationality-aware names or not during obfuscation. This param affects only names (NAME, PATIENT, DOCTOR, first_name, last_name, ...). When enabled, the original name's nationality is detected from the embedded nationality name lists (e.g. Arab, French, Spanish, German, Russian, Turkish, ...) and the fake name is generated from the very same nationality. Nationality lists are gender-separated, so a detected male name is replaced by a male name of the same nationality and vice versa.

    This feature is only supported for the English language (language == "en"). For any other language it is automatically disabled regardless of the parameter value. If the nationality of the original name cannot be detected, the obfuscation falls back to the regular behavior (gender-aware if genderAwareness is enabled, otherwise the default faker lists).

    Whether to apply HIPAA Safe Harbor ZIP code obfuscation rules.

    Whether to apply HIPAA Safe Harbor ZIP code obfuscation rules.

    When enabled (true), ZIP/ZIP+4 obfuscation follows the HIPAA Safe Harbor guidance:

    1. The algorithm extracts the first five digits from the input (accepting formats like "12345", "12345-6789", "123456789" and tolerant forms). 2. If the first three-digit ZIP prefix is in the HIPAA restricted list (the 17 prefixes derived from 2000 Census data), the ZIP MUST be suppressed to the canonical value "000**". 3. Otherwise, the ZIP is generalized to the first three digits followed by "**" (i.e. XXX**). The +4 portion will be masked with asterisks if present.

    When disabled (false), HIPAA-specific ZIP obfuscation is not applied and the component's default/custom ZIP obfuscation is used instead.

    Number of leading ZIP code digits to preserve when applying HIPAA-based ZIP obfuscation. This parameter is only effective when obfuscateZipByHipaa is enabled.

    Behavior:

    • Preserves the first value digits of the ZIP code.

    Examples:

    • 12345 → 123**
    • If the preserved digit count is set to 2: 12345 → 12***

    variant-to-canonical entity mappings to ensure consistent obfuscation.

    variant-to-canonical entity mappings to ensure consistent obfuscation.

    This method allows you to define equivalence rules for entity variants that should be obfuscated the same way. For example, the names "Alex" and "Alexander" will always be mapped to the same obfuscated value if they are linked to the same canonical form.

    It accepts an array of string triplets, where each triplet defines:

    • variant: A non-standard, short, or alternative form of a value (e.g., "Alex")
    • entityType: The type of the entity (e.g., "NAME", "STATE", "COUNTRY")
    • canonical: The standardized form all variants map to (e.g., "Alexander")

    variant and entityType comparisons are case-insensitive during processing.

    This is especially useful in de-identification tasks to ensure consistent replacement of semantically identical values. It also allows cross-variant normalization across different occurrences of sensitive data.

    Sets variant-to-canonical entity mappings to ensure consistent obfuscation.

    Sets variant-to-canonical entity mappings to ensure consistent obfuscation.

    This method allows you to define equivalence rules for entity variants that should be obfuscated the same way. For example, the names "Alex" and "Alexander" will always be mapped to the same obfuscated value if they are linked to the same canonical form.

    It accepts an array of string triplets, where each triplet defines:

    • variant: A non-standard, short, or alternative form of a value (e.g., "Alex")
    • entityType: The type of the entity (e.g., "NAME", "STATE", "COUNTRY")
    • canonical: The standardized form all variants map to (e.g., "Alexander")

    variant and entityType comparisons are case-insensitive during processing.

    This is especially useful in de-identification tasks to ensure consistent replacement of semantically identical values. It also allows cross-variant normalization across different occurrences of sensitive data.

    Example
    val equivalents = Array(
      Array("Alex", "NAME", "Alexander"),
