adjective-cluster?

create-dictionary-context

(create-dictionary-context)(create-dictionary-context resource & {:keys [max-length]})

Create a dictionray context to change the behavior of WordNet lookups.

The type of dictionary is determined by resource, which can be:

  • :map MapBackedDictionary, which initializes with the dictionary. This is faster but takes more memory.
  • :file FileBackedDictionary, which hits a file (resource in our case) for each lookup. This is slower but takes less memory.
  • :default Same as :map and default with 0 arg invocation.

Note that if a token (word or lemma) is not valid per valid-token? then any of the lookup function (i.e. lookup-word) will return an empty list, nil, or false depending on the function. See the keys section for more inforamtion.

Keys

  • :max-length the maximum length or token that prevents a lookup
