I got latest from Trunk and built it, and when running SparseVectorsFromSequenceFiles I noticed what I think is a bug. The SparseVectorsFromSequenceFiles throws an exception when you want term frequency vectors output, with the maxDFSigma filtering option.
Basically the if / else if section shown below, will skip calling DictionaryVectorizer.createTermFrequencyVectors when have that combination. The condition will create vectors when you want tf vectors without maxDFSigma filtering, or tfidf vectors with maxDFSigma filtering, but if you want tf vectors with maxDFSigma filtering, it totally skips over the call to createTermFrequencyVectors, and later on throws an exception because the vector input path doesn't exist. Is this a known issue? I'm assuming thats not the way its suposed to work, correct? If so, I think some sort of validation should break the user out before they start processing anything //at line ~267 in trunk if (!processIdf && !shouldPrune) { DictionaryVectorizer.createTermFrequencyVectors(tokenizedPath, outputDir, tfDirName, conf, minSupport, maxNGramSize, minLLRValue, norm, logNormalize, reduceTasks, chunkSize, sequentialAccessOutput, namedVectors); } else if (processIdf) { DictionaryVectorizer.createTermFrequencyVectors(tokenizedPath, outputDir, tfDirName, conf, minSupport, maxNGramSize, minLLRValue, -1.0f, false, reduceTasks, chunkSize, sequentialAccessOutput, namedVectors); } -- Thanks, John C
