Take a look at http://pig.apache.org/docs/r0.10.0/cont.html#Parameter-Sub- Specifying Parameters Using the Declare Statement.
You can do this in your case %declare page_input_path `echo $input_path | sed 's/output/output\/page/g'` Or you can use embedded python ( http://pig.apache.org/docs/r0.10.0/cont.html#embed-python) to bind the input and output after manipulating the parameters using python.
