Text::NSP::Measures::2D::MI::ps - Perl module that implements Poisson-Stirling measure of association for bigrams.
use Text::NSP::Measures::2D::MI::ps; my $npp = 60; my $n1p = 20; my $np1 = 20; my $n11 = 10; $ps_value = calculateStatistic( n11=>$n11, n1p=>$n1p, np1=>$np1, npp=>$npp); if( ($errorCode = getErrorCode())) { print STDERR $errorCode." - ".getErrorMessage()."\n""; } else { print getStatisticName."value for bigram is ".$ps_value."\n""; }
The log-likelihood ratio measures the deviation between the observed data and what would be expected if <word1> and <word2> were independent. The higher the score, the less evidence there is in favor of concluding that the words are independent.
Assume that the frequency count data associated with a bigram <word1><word2> as shown by a 2x2 contingency table:
word2 ~word2 word1 n11 n12 | n1p ~word1 n21 n22 | n2p -------------- np1 np2 npp
where n11 is the number of times <word1><word2> occur together, and n12 is the number of times <word1> occurs with some word other than word2, and n1p is the number of times in total that word1 occurs as the first word in a bigram.
The expected values for the internal cells are calculated by taking the product of their associated marginals and dividing by the sample size, for example:
np1 * n1p m11= --------- npp
The Poisson Stirling measure is a negative logarithmic approximation of the Poisson-likelihood measure. It uses the Stirling's formula to approximate the factorial in Poisson-likelihood measure.
Poisson-Stirling = n11 * ( log(n11) - log(m11) - 1)
which is same as
Poisson-Stirling = n11 * ( log(n11/m11) - 1)
INPUT PARAMS : $count_values .. Reference of an hash containing the count values computed by the count.pl program.
RETURN VALUES : $poissonStirling .. Poisson-Stirling value for this bigram.
INPUT PARAMS : none
RETURN VALUES : $name .. Name of the measure.
