Hello! I'm Shubham Sharma, a 3rd year Information Systems student at BITS Pilani, and I'd like to explore the possibilities of a GSOC Project that would aim at improving the tolerant retrieval capabilities via *phonetic* correction(: misspellings that arise because the user types a query that sounds like the target term. ) I did find spelling correction via edit distance in

Hello dear R-helpers, I'm working with R-2.15.2 on Windows 7 OS. I'm stucked with a merge of two data frames by characters. In each data frame I got two different list of names, that is my main-key to be merged. To figure out what I'm saying, I build up a modified "?merge" example, with errors by purpose: # Data for authors: authors <- data.frame( surname =

Hi, Before I reinvent the wheel I wanted to kindly ask you for your opinion if there is a simple way to do it. I want to merge a larger number of tables from different data sources in R and the matching criterium are country names. The tables are of different size and sometimes the country names do differ slightly. Has anyone done this or any recommendation on what commands I

Not sure how much this will interest people but I don''t have a blog so I''m posting something I threw together today cause I think it might be useful. In what little free time I have I''ve been wanting to put together a Rails/Ferret based restful dictionary. So I finally got a chance to get started today so the first thing I wanted to do was implement a metaphone

This morning, 2 of us noticed that running contrib/scripts/install_prereq on a fresh Ubuntu 14 system actually removed critical packages like network-manager, openssh-server, perl, git, and a bunch of others. It appears that the culprit is the libsnmp-dev package. It's default conflict resolution solution is to uninstall conflicting packages and the alternate solution is to correctly upgrade

I am trying to do a search for a crazy problem. Anyways, the search can only contain one word and the database it''s searching contains one word per row. Basically if someone tries to search for a word I want to find the closest match. Ex: If someone types "cat" and "cat" is not in my database, but "bat" is, how could I select bat? Also, if someone

Hello, does anybody know how to implement a "Did you mean ...?" like Google with act_as_ferret? I think this is a possible way: 1. Generate a keyword-list (this is my difficulty. I don''t know how to build such a list from the index) with no stop-words from the first index. e. g. (car, ship, plant, house) 2. Build a second index from this word-list where we store the word in

Hi I have mailed about this previously, but back then it was not really confirmed, so I have let it be at that. Anyhow, problem is that for some reason 2.5/2.6 ext3 with HTREE support do not like what perl-5.8.0 does during installation. It *seems* like one of the temporary files created during manpage installation do not get unlinked properly, or gets into the hash (this possible?) and cause

Please excuse me if this has been answered before. Is there a "how-to" guide or a walkthrough on integrating Lucene with ROR via XMLRPC? I got Ferret to work but I am worried that it''s not going to be as scalable. I highly appreciate your assistance. Thanks Frank --------------------------------- Relax. Yahoo! Mail virus
