NAME

count2huge.pl - Convert the output of count.pl to huge-count.pl.

SYNOPSIS

count2huge.pl takes the output of count.pl and sorts the bigrams by alphabet order. The output bigrams have the same order with the output of huge-count.pl

DESCRIPTION

count2huge.pl convert the output of the count.pl to huge-count.pl for the same input text and options. The reason we do this is because for the vector relatedness measure of UMLS-Similarity, it requires the bigrams which starts with the same term are grouped together. When the bigrams are sorted, it could optimize the processing time. For details, please see the vector-input.pl of UMLS-Similarity.

See perldoc count2huge.pl

INPUT

Required Arguments:

SOURCE

Input to count2huge.pl is a single flat bigrams list file generated by count.pl.

DESTINATIONDIR

count2huge.pl sorts the bigrams in the alphabet order. The result file count2huge.output is located in the destination directory. It has the same result with the output of huge-count.pl which has same text and options of count.pl.

--split N

huge-split will divide the output bigrmas tokenlist generated by count.pl Each part created with --split N will contain N lines. Value of N should be chosen such that huge-sort.pl can be efficiently run on any part containing N lines from the file contains all bigrams file.

We suggest that N is equal to the number of KB of memory you have. If the computer has 8 GB RAM, which is 8,000,000 KB, N should be set to 8000000.
