SYNOPSIS
Displays distribution of senses in a given Senseval-2 file.
USGAE
Usage: frequency.pl [OPTIONS] SOURCE
Type 'frequency.pl --help' for quick summary of the Options.
INPUT
Required Arguments:
SOURCE
SOURCE should be a Senseval-2 formatted file. The sense ids are searched by matching a regex /sense\s*id="S"/.
An instance having multiple sense ids should appear only once with multiple <answer> tags. e.g. If an instance IID has 2 sense ids SID1 and SID2, then in the SOURCE file, instance IID should be formatted as -
<instance id="IID">
<answer instance="IID" senseid="SID1"/>
<answer instance="IID" senseid="SID2"/>
<context>
Context Data comes here ....
</context>
</instance>
Optional Arguments:
--help
Displays this message.
--version
Displays the version information.
OUTPUT
Output displays
1. Total number of instances in SOURCE
These are counted by matching regex /instance id=\"ID\"/ for unique instance ids.
2. Total number of distinct sense tags found in SOURCE
These are searched by matching a regex /sense\s*id="S"/.
3. Sense Distribution
Output shows
<sense id="S" percent="P"/>
for each sense id found in SOURCE. P is the percentage frequency of the sense S.
4. % of Majority sense
This will be the highest sense percentage found in SOURCE.
Sample Output
<sense id="begin%2:30:00::" percent="59.49"/>
<sense id="begin%2:30:01::" percent="13.38"/>
<sense id="begin%2:42:00::" percent="4.70"/>
<sense id="begin%2:42:03::" percent="3.44"/>
<sense id="begin%2:42:04::" percent="18.99"/>
Total Instances = 548
Total Distinct Senses=5
Distribution={59.49,18.99,13.38,4.70,3.44}
% of Majority Sense = 59.49
Shows that there are total 548 instances and 5 senses.
The senses are distributed with frequencies
{59.49,18.99,13.38,4.70,3.44}
where majority sense has frequency = 59.49
The <sense> tags show the frequency of each individual tag.
