NAME
CHANGES Changelog for the Ngram Statistics Package (Text-NSP)
SYNOPSIS
Revision history for Perl module Text::NSP
DESCRIPTION
1.17
Released April 26, 2010 all changes by YL
* Created count2huge.pl and its testing files. count2huge.pl helps
to convert the output of count.pl to huge-count.pl.
1.15
Released April 7, 2010 all changes by YL
* Created huge-split.pl and huge-delete.pl in order to remove this
functionality from huge-count.pl and huge-merge.pl (and make it
easier to use these different components in more flexible ways).
1.13
Released March 5, 2010 all changes by TDP and YL
* Replaced huge-count.pl with a more efficient version that counts
large number of bigrams by creating multiple files, sorting, and
merging them. The sorting and merging are carried out by
huge-sort and huge-merge.pl. Note that the previous versions of
huge-count.pl and associated utilities can be found in
/Text-NSP/bin/utils/deprecated and will remain there for at
least one more release. They will not however be installed
automatically. (YL)
* Added --uremove and --ufrequency options to count.pl. This allow
for frequency cutoffs based on ngrams occuring more than a given
number of times (rather than just less than, which is what
--remove and --frequency enable). This is a long standing item
on the NSP Todo list that has finally been checked off! (YL)
* Introduced /bin/utils/contributed to allow for the distribution
of user contributed programs that might be useful to other
users. These programs do not get installed automatically with
NSP, and are not included in our standard testing streams, but
could still prove very useful to users. Please let us know if
you have code you might like to include here. (TDP)
* Added nsp-stoplist.regex to distribution (in
/Text-NSP/bin/utils), to serve as a default stoplist. (TDP)
Reported here : <L http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ngram/message/280>
This was not added in 1.11 due to failure to rebuilt MANIFEST.
* Added support for 4-d log-likelihood
(Text::NSP::Measures::4D::MI:ll). (TDP)
1.11
Released Nov 5, 2009 all changes by TDP
* Fixed bug in statistic.pl which caused long form of pmi
(Text::NSP::Measures::3D::MI::pmi) not to be handled correctly
on the command line, and that caused pmi_exp not to be properly
initialize when using the long form of pmi.
Reported here : <L http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ngram/message/240>
* Added nsp-stoplist.regex to distribution (in
/Text-NSP/bin/utils), to serve as a default stoplist.
Reported here : <L http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ngram/message/280>
* Fixed link to class diagram in FAQ.pod.
Reported here : <L http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ngram/message/230>
* Fixed documentation Text::NSP::Measures::3D::MI::pmi to
correctly show how we are computing expected values.
Reported here : <L http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ngram/message/290>
* Fixed a few broken links in README.pod that were discovered
while preparng this release
1.09
Released March 26, 2008 all changes by TDP
* Spell checked the modules
* Relaxed test cases 27, 29 for ll, 20 for x2, and 13 for phi, due
to arithmetic differences on 64 bit architectures
* Modified Makefile.PL to go back to more standard methods of
testing and installation.
* Modified structure of /t directory for 'make test'. It appears
that the use of subdirectories in /t with test cases might have
been causing problems for Windows testing, so we have moved all
test files to the top level of /t, and also removed the TEST
program so that things are called in a more standard or generic
fashion.
1.07
Released March 24, 2008 all changes by TDP
* Updated Makefile.PL to no longer require 5.8.5 - have dropped
back to 5.6
* Updated FAQ with some explanation of ALL-TESTS.sh
* Renamed /docs as /doc to be consistent with other packages
* Added descriptive labels in POD in NAME field of .pl programs to
provide that info on CPAN display
* Fixed duplicate Copyright message bug in documentation of
Measures.pm
* Removed "help" messages from Makefile.PL execution so as to
(hopefully) avoid problems with installations on Windows.
* Corrected error in INSTALL instructions - csh ./ALL-TESTS.sh
must be performed after 'make install'
1.05
Released March 20, 2008 all changes by TDP
* Fixed problem with file Testing/statistic/t2 would appear
(mysteriously) but not be in the MANIFEST. This file was left
behind during /Testing/statistic/normal-op.sh and is now being
removed.
* Fixed problem in /Testing where .sh files are sometimes not
executable. Those files are now invoked via 'csh test.sh' rather
than './test.sh', meaning that they no longer need to be
executable.
* Fixed ticket number 24061 from rt.cpan.org regarding incorrect
version information coming from Measures.pm
* Archived all old ChangeLogs to doc/ChangeLogs directory. Began
to use pod in CHANGES directory instead
* Added doc/update-pod.sh to automatically refresh top level read
only documentation including README, CHANGES, TODO and INSTALL
* Fixed Makefile.PL to avoid problems during Windows install. This
problem and fix was reported by Richard Churchill to the ngram
mailing list. This may also address ticket #20371 from
rt.cpan.org.
* Modified Makefile.PL to allow for use of 'make dist' and also
creation of META.yml
