polmineR (version 0.8.3)

context-class: Context class.

Description

Class to organize information of context analysis.

Usage

# S4 method for context
length(x)

# S4 method for context p_attributes(.Object)

# S4 method for context count(.Object)

# S4 method for context sample(x, size)

# S4 method for context enrich( .Object, s_attribute = NULL, p_attribute = NULL, decode = FALSE, verbose = TRUE, ... )

# S4 method for context as.regions(x, node = TRUE)

# S4 method for context trim( object, s_attribute = NULL, positivelist = NULL, p_attribute = p_attributes(object), regex = FALSE, stoplist = NULL, verbose = TRUE, progress = TRUE, ... )

Arguments

x

a context object

.Object

object

size

integer indicating sample size

s_attribute

s-attribute(s) to add to data.table in cpos-slot

p_attribute

p-attribute(s) to add to data.table in cpos-slot

decode

logical, whether to convert integer ids to expressive strings

verbose

logical, whether to be talkative

...

to maintain backwards compatibility if argument pAttribute is still used

node

A logical value, whether to include the node (i.e. query matches) in the region matrix generated when creating a partition from a context-object.

object

a context object

positivelist

tokens that are required to be present to keep a match

regex

logical, whether positivlist / stoplist is interpreted as regular expressions

stoplist

tokens that are used to exclude a match

progress

logical, whether to show progress bar

Slots

query

The query examined (character).

count

An integer value, the number of hits for the query.

partition

The partition the context object is based on.

size_partition

The size of the partition, a length-one integer vector.

left

A length-one integer value, the number of tokens to the left of the query match.

right

An integer value, the number of tokens to the right of the query match.

size

A length-one integer value, the number of tokens covered by the context-object, i.e. the number of tokens in the right and left context of the node as well as query matches.

size_match

A length-one integer value, the number of tokens matches by the query. Identical with the value in slot count if the query is not a CQP query.

size_coi

A length-one integer value, the number of tokens in the right and left context of the node (excluding query matches).

size_ref

A length-one integer value, the number of tokens in the partition, without tokens matched and the tokens in the left and right context.

boundary

An s-attribute (character).

p_attribute

The p-attribute of the query (character).

corpus

The CWB corpus used (character).

stat

A data.table, the statistics of the analysis.

encoding

Object of class character, encoding of the corpus.

cpos

A data.table, with the columns match_id, cpos, position, word_id.

method

A character-vector, statistical test used.

call

Object of class character, call that generated the object.

Details

Objects of the class context include a data.table in the slot cpos. The data.table will at least include the columns "match_id", "cpos" and "position".

The length-method will return the number of hits that were achieved.

The enrich-method can be used to add additional information to the data.table in the "cpos"-slot of a context-object.
