<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>

<p>This document puts together the most frequent questions and issues that we have encountered so far. Please feel welcome to ask further questions via <%= mail_to_chiffre join('@', 'korap', 'ids-mannheim.de'), subject => 'Question via Kalamar', begin %>e-mail<% end %>.

<section>
  <h3>Where is the source code?</h3>
  <p>Parts of KorAP are already available on <%= doc_ext_link_to 'GitHub', 'https://github.com/KorAP' %>, and we will publish more components in the future.</p>

<section>
  <h3>Why can’t I create an account?</h3>
  <blockquote>
    <p>This question refers to the <%= doc_ext_link_to 'first frontend', 'http://korap.ids-mannheim.de/app' %>. The second frontend has no user management yet.</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>If you already have a COSMAS II account, you should be able to log in using those credentials. Other users may need to wait a bit longer. For the time being, access to KorAP will be restricted to connections from inside the IDS only.</p>
  <p>And if you think something else is wrong with your login - <%= mail_to_chiffre join('@', 'korap', 'ids-mannheim.de'), subject => 'Something is wrong with my login', begin %>please let us know<% end %>.</p>

<section>
  <h3>Why is this written in English only?</h3>
  <p>This is a temporary collection of info before we develop proper documentation.</p>

  <h3>Why do some queries take a long time to finish, or in the end yield no results?</h3>
  <p>In the alpha phase, part of our tasks is to optimize the system. In the beginning, one may expect some actions to take an inordinate amount of time, but this is getting better and better. If you notice a persistent failure in some specific case, please be so kind as to <%= mail_to_chiffre join('@', 'korap', 'ids-mannheim.de'), subject => 'I found a bug in the query system', begin %>let us know<% end %>.</p>

  <h3>How do I know which tagset to use for collocation analysis properties?</h3>
  <blockquote>
    <p>This question refers to the <%= doc_ext_link_to 'first frontend', 'http://korap.ids-mannheim.de/app' %>. The second frontend has no collocation analysis module yet.</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>In the current implementation, the Neo4J engine uses the TreeTagger foundry as default. 
    Thus, the respective tags come from the STTS tagset.</p>

  <h3>How do I use the collocation search view?</h3>
  <blockquote>
    <p>This question refers to the <%= doc_ext_link_to 'first frontend', 'http://korap.ids-mannheim.de/app' %>. The second frontend has no collocation analysis module yet.</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>The collocation search view uses collocation properties to find collocates in the context of the specified query. This property can be of either a POS or a lemma. The operator assigns this property either an inclusive and exclusive state (i.e. negation) or can specify that the selected property is a regular expression. You can assign multiple properties per queries.</p>

  <h3>I want to report an issue, how do I do it?</h3>
  <p>Please refer to our public ticketing system <%= doc_ext_link_to 'for the frontend at GitHub', 'https://github.com/KorAP/Kalamar/issues' %>, to report on any issues. If you don't have a GitHub account, please send us an <%= mail_to_chiffre join('@', 'korap', 'ids-mannheim.de'), subject => 'I found an issue', begin %>e-mail<% end %>.</p>
  %# This option is the preferred one because it gathers some (and will in time gather more) important versioning data.

<section>
  <h3>Are you aware of this/that issue?</h3>
  <p>What follows is a list of selected issues that might affect the users. We are aware of them and will address them. (When? As soon as possible, given the development schedule and time constraints.)</p>
  <ul>
    <li><strong>Some matches are completely wrong - what’s going on?</strong><br>
      Before the data can be searched, it has to be preprocessed and indexed. These processes can also suffer from errors, especially if the input data format is not perfectly regular, as a result of prior conversions. While fixes in the frontend and in the backend are uploaded quickly, fixes in the preprocessing pipeline (including tokenization, lemmatization etc.) only appear after reindexation - and that doesn’t happen very often. So these bugs will stay online for a while even if they are already fixed in the datasets. Known index bugs already fixed but with the fixes not visible immediately include:
      <ul>
	      <li>Sentence annotations for Treetagger</li>
	      <li>All annotations for Mate (including lemmata)</li>
	      <li>Some annotations on the first token of a text (includes first sentences and first paragraphs, in case they start at the beginning of a text)</li>
      </ul>
    </li>
  </ul>
  <p>We will be happy to get reports about all wrong matches not related to these bugs.</p>
