Hello guys.I have sent a pull request for the code and tests of the Tf-Idf weighting scheme. Please do let me know if any changes are required.Meanwhile,Ill begin working on implementing normalizations which require additional statistics and on the DFR schemes. https://github.com/xapian/xapian/pull/6 On Tue, Feb 26, 2013 at 5:30 PM, <xapian-devel-request at lists.xapian.org>wrote: >

Hello guys,I have added code for tfidf to the weight.cc file in omega/ . Here is the patch : - https://github.com/aarshkshah1992/xapian/commit/5ff41a15f574e6780cc61e67e7f3da3d97ff4ec8 It compiles well and I think it'll work well. Here's the link to the documentation file omegascript.rst where I've added tfidf.

Hello guys.I just read up about tf-idf schemes and want to implement it in Xapian (with some frequently used normalizations) as it will also give me a good hang of implementing a weighting scheme before I start working on implementing DFR schemes. I read the following as references and I think Ive understood it well and can write the hack :- 1.)

Hi Parth, I implemented DFR algorithms in Xapian as a part of GSOC last year under the mentorship of Olly. This year, I want to work on analyzing and optimizing the performance of the DFR algorithms and comparing them with BM25.I also want to work on profiling the query expansion schemes and test the relevance(precision and recall) / speed(time taken) of the

Hey guys,hi.:) I've finished implementing the PL2 scheme . The bounds I have implemented for it are as good as I could, given the nature of the scheme and my mathematical skills.However,tight bounds for other named DFR schemes will be easier to implement because their forumlas are quite simpler compared to PL2 . Will send in a pull request in a couple of days once I'm done with the tests

Hi, While searching for a project which matches my interest andskill level, I found this project named Matcher Optimization. This project is really challenging and excting from my view point and I would like to be a part of this project. Optimization techniques metioned in the reference links provided will take some time for me to have a good understanding about them. But I am trying to get my

Hello guys :) I have sent a pull request for the Tf-Idf Weighting scheme incorporating as many normalizations as I could with the help of statistics currently available from Xapian::Weight . Please let me know what you'll think about it. I used the weighting scheme in a simple searcher and it did a fine job with it. I have no experience with writing tests for features like this.Please give me

Hey guys, hi :) I have some ideas about implementing a general DFR framework that will be able to generate any DFR model. I'm thinking of implementing a dummy DFR framework that will be capable of generating a fixed named scheme right now but can be extended later to include all the schemes.Is it okay if I send a pull request for such a dummy framework to get it reviewed by the community so

Hello guys.I am working on implementing the PL2 weighting scheme of the DFR framework by Gianni Amati. It uses the Poisson approximation of the Binomial as the probabilistic model (P), the Laplace law of succession to calculate the after effect of sampling or the risk gain (L) and within document frequency normalization H2(2) (as proposed by Amati in his PHD thesis). The formula for w(t,d) in

Hi everyone, I am thinking of working on the following ideas for my GSOC proposal based on my discussions with Olly and my own understanding. Rather than focusing on an entire perftest module, I have decided to focus on implementing performance tests for weighting schemes based on a wikipedia dump and in addition to that, build a framework to measure the

Hello guys. I just ran the updated tests for PL2 and they are not giving the mset order I expect.Now,the thing is, dfr's behavior is a bit hard to predict and so even if I expect a particular order ,it may give another order and still be correct.So,the only way to write correct tests for PL2 is to manually calculate the weight of the documents to decide the expected order.For that,I need to

Hi, guys I am Wenjin from Graduate School of Chinese Academy of Science, pursing a master degree and my current research interests including using Data mining and Information retrieve technology to analysis software engineering (SE) data and support SE. I have great interested in "Weight Schemes" project. and in the last few days I have learnt some detail about DFR model family by

Hey guys ,Hi :) I am working on a hack which will allow the user to specify a weighing scheme (along with the parameters , if he does not not want to use the default values) to build the Eset (rather than using the hard coded TradWeight scheme with default k=1 ) as Olly had suggested that we can probably get better terms (a more relevant Eset) for query expansion if we use say something

Hello guys,I've modified the TfIdf patch as per the feedback I got on it and have added the code to the pull request. Please do have a look and let me now what you'll think. https://github.com/xapian/xapian/pull/6 Also,I read somewhere that I need to register this weighting scheme with Xapian. Please can you'll throw some light on that ? -Regards -Aarsh -------------- next part

Hello, I am beginning work on the perf test module. The initial steps that I aim to accomplish are :- -> Download the wikipedia dumps for multiple languages . -> Write python scripts to tokenize the dump (will probably use something like nltk which has powerful inbuilt tokenizers) -> Discuss and finalize the design of the search and query expansion perf tests as I want to complete them

Hey guys,I have added a python indexer example to the SampleCode page of our wiki.Please do have a look.The code can also be found here :- https://github.com/aarshkshah1992/xapian/blob/efcf443527b74326119bbc0935fc41a002ce60db/xapian-bindings/python/docs/examples/simpleindexgrep.py/ Thanks :) -Regards -Aarsh -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hey guys,I am a 3rd year Computer Science undergrad student.I a extremely interested in contributing code to the XAPIAN project. The work you people do sounds extremely fascinating and interesting.Can someone just give me a brief overview of how to proceed ?. I Can code in C,C++ and Python and have experience in Natural Lanuage Processing.Am also quite comfortable with NLTK and using Wordnet.Am

Hello Dan and Olly, this is the code for the base class for query expansion that I have written. The code will not compile as I have written only the base class until now. Have yet to use it. Please do tell me what you think of the base class and what changes you suggest I should make before I move forward with the project. https://github.com/xapian/xapian/pull/23 -Regards -Aarsh --------------
