Hi, The Spotlight demo has not been working for several languages the past week due to downtime on the server(s) hosted at http://spotlight.sztaki.hu. Interested visitors could be confused/disappointed about the tool, because no warning or error message is given. The text just remains unannotated, and it is not clear whether anything has happened at all. Perhaps something for a maintainer to look into?
Personally, I've gotten something out of the downtime: I'm now experimenting with running my own servers. I'm very impressed that I'm able to host both English and Dutch models simultaneously on a 8 Gb machine (thanks developers!), but I'm getting a lot less recall than I would like with English texts. I'm using the "medium" spotter lexicon, and I wonder: is the URI threshold of 10 (mentioned in the filename) a threshold on the number of inlinks (same as with the support parameter)? Intuitively, I don't think this would have much influence on the annotations I expect, but I like to understand what I'm working with. Also, I would like to know if there is any way to set the "spotting probability" (the last number in spotter_thresholds.txt) in the server.properties file? I'm using the pre-built models (.mem files) for Dutch, and adjusting this parameter in spotter_thresholds.txt works beautifully for what I want to do. For English, I have no way to fit these models into my RAM unfortunately.
