DeReKoVecs (server and web app)

Visualizes paradigmatic and syntagmatic relations between words based on wang2vec / structured skip-n-gram (Ling et al. 2015) word embeddings (Mikolov et al. 2013) and word embedding networks.

DeReKoVecs (Fankhauser / Kupietz 2017, 2019, 2022; Kupietz et al. 2018) serves as part of the new open lab of the Corpus Linguistics group at IDS Mannheim. Similar to the Collocation Database CCDB (Keibel / Belica 2007, Belica 2011), DeReKoVecs serves for investigating and comparing of measurements, dimension reduction procedures, visualizations etc., to track down detailed paradigmatic and syntagmatic relations between words based on their use in very large corpora such as the German Reference Corpus DeReKo (Kupietz et al. 2010).

Installation

Dependencies

Build and install

cpanm https://github.com/Akron/Mojolicious-Plugin-Localize.git
cpanm --installdeps .

perl Makefile.PL
make
make install

Detailed and a known to work installation procedure can also be found in the GitLab CI pipeline script.

Please note the IDS::DeReKoVecs::Read is not stable and not recommended to be used, yet.

Build your own models

You can build you own models with dereko2vec.

Run

Debugging mode

MOJO_CONFIG=$(pwd)/example.conf morbo script/derekovecs-server

Production mode

MOJO_CONFIG=$(pwd)/example.conf hypnotoad script/derekovecs-server

The web user interface will than be available for example at http://localhost:3000

Web Service API

In addition to the web user interface, derekovecs also provides a web api which is however still very unsystematic and not stable.
