Dear Members & Experts,
Since the Dictionary () function is no longer available with the tm package.
How do I use other functions to do the same as below? I want to capture a list
of specific terms from a corpus. By example, if my corpus has 102 files. I want
to see a list with occurrences of prostatic, adenocarcinoma, grade in all 102
files. When I use the function Dictionary (), I got the error: Error: could not
find function "Dictionary"
> d <- Dictionary(c("prostatic", "adenocarcinoma", "grade"))
> inspect(DocumentTermMatrix(docs, list(dictionary = d)))
But if I use the codes below using inspect, the dictionary only returns the
terms for 10 files instead of 102. I need a way to get my dictionary to capture
and return those terms for all 102 files or whatever other terms I select. I
know I am close but inspect () is not the right function.
> myTerms <- c("prostatic", "adenocarcinoma", "grade")
> inspect(DocumentTermMatrix(docs, list(dictionary = myTerms)))
<<DocumentTermMatrix (documents: 102, terms: 3)>>
Non-/sparse entries: 292/14
Sparsity : 5%
Maximal term length: 14
Weighting : term frequency (tf)
Sample :
Terms
Docs adenocarcinoma grade prostatic
