wordfreq/wordfreq_builder/rules.ninja

# This defines the rules on how to build parts of the wordfreq lists, using the
# Ninja build system:
#
#   http://martine.github.io/ninja/manual.html
#
# Ninja is available in the 'ninja-build' Ubuntu package. It's like make with
# better parallelism and the ability for build steps to produce multiple
# outputs. The tradeoff is that its rule syntax isn't full of magic for
# expanding wildcards and finding dependencies, so in general you have to
# write the dependencies using a script.
#
# This file will become the header of the larger build.ninja file, which also
# contains the programatically-defined dependency graph.

# Variables
DATA = ./data

# How to build the build.ninja file itself. (Use the Makefile to get it the
# first time.)

# wiki2text is a tool I wrote using Nim 0.11, which extracts plain text from

# To convert the Leeds corpus, look for space-separated lines that start with
# an integer and a decimal. The integer is the rank, which we discard. The
# decimal is the frequency, and the remaining text is the term. Use sed -n

# Grep out the term "EOS", an indication that Leeds used MeCab and didn't
# strip out the EOS lines.

# Convert and clean up the Google Books Syntactic N-grams data. Concatenate all
# the input files, keep only the single words and their counts, and only keep
# lines with counts of 100 or more.

# source data was already filtered to only show words in roles with at least
# two-digit counts of occurences.)
