Text Analysis


We have produced a text analyzer that processes text in English and Spanish languages.

The English version can be seen at : http://thames.cs.rhul.ac.uk:8080/wstalk_en/TextQuery

The Spanish version can be seen at : http://thames.cs.rhul.ac.uk:8080/wstalk_es/TextQuery

The text analysis carries out the following process:
- Porter stemming
- Creation of a texts-by-terms frequency of occurrence array
- Then mapping this (occurrence array) into a correspondence analysis factor space in order to handle all aspects of weighting / normalization in a principled way; and
- Finally carrying out a hierarchical clustering from the correspondence analysis factor projections
