Scoring text against a semantic dictionary

Forgot the text.

I'm a tad bit unclear as to where you want to do the processing of the dictionary.csv file. Do you want to do while tokenization is happening (i.e. word vector creation) or do you want to do it outside?  The way I understand is that you wish to do it after you created a WordList.  Check out this attached process. I used a Search Twitter operator just for some random text.

Hi Thomas

I would look to do the scoring outside of the tokenisation. 

If you look at the start of my process it is very similar to the Twitter process that you linked to the file. The difference between a sentiment dictionary and a semantic dictionary would be something like this: 

Sentiment

Word        Weight

good         1.0
bad         -1.5

Semantic

Text Catagory   Verb   Noun   Article    Conjunction     Other

Text 1            10    15      30            5            40
Text 2            20    10      14            1            55
Text 3            15     5      10            5            65

The semantic dictionary should always total 100% as it classifies all of the words used in the text under their various parts. It is not a decision if there is good or bad within the text, it is a classification of all of the words inside the text into taxonomies. One word can belong to multiple taxonomies such as "I" is a pro-noun as well as a personal pronoun and would need to be allocated to both categories in the analysis. Using the "I" example, if this was the only text present it would look something like this: 

Text Catagory   Function Word     Pronoun     Personal Pronoun  Other
Text 1                25            25               25           25

I have not supplied a full dictionary but only a partial one as I am still busy building the scorings for each of the words.  

Oh Ok, so then the process is nearly there. Do your Tokenization and then do a Wordlist to Data from there you would need to build a subprocess to do the last bit. 

Let me see if I can whip something up.

HI Thomas, I installed Java across my keyboard and lost my Mac for two weeks. Quick follow up on this post. 

I believe I am not proficient enough as yet in the usage of the subprocesses so would like to see how you tackle it. 

Take a look at the sample process below. You'll need to modify it with your dictionary and have your pronouns, verbs, etc all add up to one. This process was developed by my colleague, so he annotated the process as well to help you along.
