In conjugateprior/rjca: R Interface to JCA Tools

Drive the word counter and return a sparse matrix containing word counts. See details for possible extra arguments.

Usage

jca_word(files, ...)

Arguments

files	a list of file and folder names
...	extra arguments to control the process. See Details.

Details

Optional arguments are

• locale: Locale in ISO format, e.g. "en_US". Defaults to whatever get_locale returns

• encoding: the file encoding of the files. Defaults to the whatever get_encoding returns

• output: the folder that the results will land in before being served back as a data.frame. Defaults to a temporary folder

• progress: Whether to show the progress of the java code as it goes through the files

• no.currency: Whether to remove currency. Defaults to FALSE

• stopwords: File of stop words not to count. By default every word is counted

Available stemmer languages are danish, dutch, english, finnish, french, german, hungarian, italian, norwegian, portuguese, romanian, russian, spanish, swedish, turkish. These are snowball project stemmers so I can't vouch for them.

This function also dumps the location of the temporary folder where the results landed to standard error in case you want the original csv data file and yoshikoder dictionary translation.
