--clean

Description:

Cleans up word2vec directory. Removes C object and executable files.

This is useful when moving the development directory between computers with different CPU architectures (x86/x64) and attempting to run word2vec executable files.
Errors could occur when trying to run a 64-bit executable on a 32-bit machine. Cleaning up the word2vec directory and re-building the executable files
resolves this issue.

Parameters:

None

Output:

None

Example:

Word2vec-Interface.pl --clean

--version

Description:

Displays the version information.

Parameters:

None

Output:

Displays version information to the console.

Note: '--debuglog' and '--writelog' can also be combined to print debug statements to the console and write to their log files.

Example:

Word2vec-Interface.pl --version

--help

Description:

Displays the quick summary of program options.

Parameters:

None

Output:

Displays help information to the console.

Example:

Word2vec-Interface.pl --help

Debugging Arguments

List of debugging options.

--debuglog

Description:

Prints debugging statements to the console window.

Note: This parameter can be specified anywhere within the parameter string.

Parameters:

None

Output:

Prints real-time debug log to the console window.

Examples:

Word2vec-Interface.pl --test --debuglog

Word2vec-Interface.pl --debuglog --test

Word2vec-Interface.pl --debuglog --wsd -list "samples/wsd/abbrevlist.txt"

Word2vec-Interface.pl --debuglog --w2vtrain "samples/textcorpus.txt" "samples/tempvectors.bin"

--writelog

Description:

Writes debugging statements to log module files.

Note: This parameter can be specified anywhere within the parameter string.

Parameters:

None

Output:

Writes debug log statements to specified log files. Each module will write to its respective log file.
ie. 'interface.pm' module will write to log file 'InterfaceLog.txt'.

Examples:

Word2vec-Interface.pl --test --writelog

Word2vec-Interface.pl --writelog --test

Word2vec-Interface.pl --writelog --wsd -list "samples/wsd/abbrevlist.txt"

Word2vec-Interface.pl --writelog --w2vtrain -trainfile "samples/textcorpus.txt" -outputfile "samples/tempvectors.bin"

Command-Line Notes

Note that when using command-line parameters, multiple commands are supported.

ie. Word2vec-Interface.pl --compiletextcorpus -workdir "samples" -savedir "samples/textcorpus.txt" --w2vtrain -trainfile "samples/textcorpus.txt" -outputfile "samples/tempvectors.bin" --cos "samples/tempvectors.bin" of the

This string of commands instructs the script to compile a text corpus of the Medline XML files in the "samples" directory. Initiate word2vec training based on the newly compiled text corpus and create a word2vec trained word vector file in the specified directory. Then subsequently use the newly trained vector data to compute the cosine similarity between the words "of" and "the".

This scripts supports as many continous commands as the user wishes to impose. All commands are checked for errors and the script will exit gracefully if such an event takes place. To obtain a better understanding of any errors, '--debuglog' or '--writelog' commands must be enabled.
