Text::NSP::Measures::2D::MI(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Text::NSP::Measures::2D::MI(3)

Text::NSP::Measures::2D::MI - Perl module that provides error checks for Loglikelihood, Total Mutual Information, Pointwise Mutual Information and Poisson-Stirling Measure.

Basic Usage

  use Text::NSP::Measures::2D::MI::ll;

  my $npp = 60; my $n1p = 20; my $np1 = 20;  my $n11 = 10;

  $ll_value = calculateStatistic( n11=>$n11,
                                      n1p=>$n1p,
                                      np1=>$np1,
                                      npp=>$npp);

  if( ($errorCode = getErrorCode()))
  {
    print STDERR $errorCode." - ".getErrorMessage()."\n"";
  }
  else
  {
    print getStatisticName."value for bigram is ".$ll_value."\n"";
  }

This module is the base class for the Loglikelihood, Total Mutual Information and the Pointwise Mutual Information measures. All these measure are similar. This module provides error checks specific for these measures, it also implements the computations that are common to these measures.
Log-Likelihood measure is computed as
Log-Likelihood = 2 * [n11 * log(n11/m11) + n12 * log(n12/m12) + n21 * log(n21/m21) + n22 * log(n22/m22)]
Total Mutual Information
TMI = (1/npp)*[n11 * log(n11/m11)/log 2 + n12 * log(n12/m12)/log 2 + n21 * log(n21/m21)/log 2 + n22 * log(n22/m22)/log 2]
Pointwise Mutual Information
PMI = log (n11/m11)/log 2
Poisson Stirling Measures
PS = n11*(log (n11/m11)-1)

All these methods use the ratio of the observed values to expected values, for computations, and thus have common error checks, so they have been grouped together.

getValues() - This method calls the computeMarginalTotals(), computeObservedValues() and the computeExpectedValues() methods to compute the observed and expected values. It checks these values for any errors that might cause the Loglikelihood, TMI & PMI measures to fail.
INPUT PARAMS : $count_values .. Reference of an hash containing the count values computed by the count.pl program.

RETURN VALUES : 1/undef ..returns '1' to indicate success and an undefined(NULL) value to indicate failure.

computePMI() - Computes the pmi of a given observed and expected value pair.
INPUT PARAMS : $n ..Observed value $m ..Expected value

RETURN VALUES : log(n/m) ..the log of the ratio of observed value to expected value.
