NAME

sort-bigrams.pl - Sort output from count.pl or statistic.pl in descending order based on frequency or association score

SYNOPSIS

Sorts a given bigram file in the descending order of the bigram scores.

USGAE

sort-bigrams.pl [OPTIONS] BIGRAM

INPUT

Required Arguments:

BIGRAM

Should be a bigram input file to be sorted. A BIGRAM file created by count.pl or statistic.pl is already sorted in the descending order of the bigram scores. A BIGRAM output of combig.pl or huge-combine.pl is however un-sorted and could be sorted using this program.

All lines in BIGRAM file should be formatted as -

word1<>word2<>n11 n1p np1

Or as -

word1<>word2<>rank score n11 n1p np1

Optional Arguments:

--frequency F

Bigrams with counts/scores less than F will not be displayed. The ignored bigrams are however not removed from the sample and their counts are still counted in the total bigrams and in the marginal word frequencies. In other words, the behavior of this option is like count.pl's --frequency option.

--remove L

Bigrams with counts/scores less than L are completely removed from the sample. Their counts do not affect any marginal totals. In other words, this option has the same effect as count.pl's --remove option.

Other Options :

--help

Displays this message.

--version

Displays the version information.

OUTPUT

sort-bigrams.pl shows given BIGRAMs in the descending order of their counts/ scores.
