| @Bit shifting: The syntax for that is actually the same, irrespectively of whether you use Java, C++, perl, python, or whatever. The >> operator shifts to the right, the << operator shifts to the left, the & operator ands the bits of the two operands and the | operator ors the bits of the two operands. Very simple. You will also find zillions of example programs on the web by typing something like ''java bit shifting'' into Google or whatever your favorite search engine is.

| Hi Marius + all: For Exercise 4, an inverted list of size m with doc ids from the range [1..n] is simply a sorted list of m numbers from the range [1..n]. I leave it to you, whether your lists potentially contain duplicates (as in 3, 5, 5, 8, 12, ...) or whether you generate them in a way that they don't contain duplicates (as in 3, 5, 8, 17, ...). It doesn't really matter for the exercise whether your list has duplicated or not. In any case, consider simple flat lists like in the two examples I gave (and like all the examples I gave in this and past lectures), not lists of lists or anything. '''Hannah 15Nov09 1:12am''' | Hi Claudius, you should compute Pr(D|H0), exactly as done in the lecture for Example 2, where we computed this probability as Pr(X > x), where X is a random variable with distribution N(0,1), that is, normal with mean 0 and variance 1, and x depends on the mean and variance of your data. '''Hannah 14Feb10 16:44''' |
| Line 24: | Line 23: |
| @Mirko: Sure, but an inverted list is a list of words where the Doc-IDs are attached to each words in which the words occur. So for Example: If word no. 5 occurs in Doc1, Doc2 and Doc3 and word no. 2 occurs in Doc5, the list would look like: 5 -> Doc1, Doc2, Doc3; 2 -> Doc5. Or am I mistaken? My question then is, how long should these attached lists be in average case? I mean, one could imagine that we got 1mil. documents over 3 words, so these lists could get very large... | Hi. If I have understood correctly, we have to compute Pr(H|D) in Exercise 4. From statistical hypothesis testing, we get Pr(D|H). Now, Pr(H|D) = Pr(D|H) * (Pr(H) / Pr(D)). We know Pr(D|H) and we can compute Pr(D), but what value do we have to use for Pr(H)? '''Claudius 14Feb10 14:41''' |
| Line 26: | Line 25: |
| EDIT: Oh ok. Now, I see your point. It's not an index, it's a list. Okay. So, what is an inverted list with Doc-IDs, then? | Hi Eric, I don't care whether you use integers or doubles, but I am curious why the one should be any harder than the other? '''Hannah 12Feb10 19:02''' |
| Line 28: | Line 27: |
| EDIT EDIT: And to your question, Mirko, take a look at [[http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/93]]. Especially at Comment no. 2. Maybe this helps... I think, Java supports StreamWriters/Readers that are able to write/read bytes. '''Marius 11/14/2009 08:46pm''' | May we use integers for sorting? Or do we have to use doubles?

| Line 30: | Line 29: |
| EDIT EDIT EDIT: Sorry, me again. Well, I bothered Wikipedia which redirects from [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_list]] to Inverted Index. So it seems to me, this is being used as a synonym. Actually, I think I'm confused enough, now. I'll better wait for any responses... ;-) '''Marius 11/14/2009 9:08 pm''' | If you're asking about the merging you can of course use a priority queue if you want, but you don't really need it when merging 2 lists. '''Marjan 18:28''' |

| @ Marius: i think we are supposed to generate one inverted __list__ of size m, with doc ids from 1..n (therefore n>=m, because no duplicates?). | Why would you use a priority queue? It's simple sorting, the exercise is not about implementing your own sorting algorithm or something like that. About exercise 3, it should be clear from the exercise itself that the sequences should be sorted (otherwise how can the merging work?) '''Marjan 18:23''' |
| Line 34: | Line 33: |
| Now a question from my side: ex.4, programming the compression in __java__, is there any __good__ tutorial about how to handle the bit-stuff? (otherwise, i think, it would cost me too much time..) '''Mirko 14Nov09, 19:18''' | Means that we have nothing to do than use a priority queue or something like that and don't have to implement the sorting?

| Hi, do you have any suggestions what the best numbers for m and n in exercise 4 should look like? Or are we supposed to mess around a bit with ints and longs? And: How long should the list of documents in the inverted index be? '''Marius 14Nov09 6:40pm''' | We prefer randomized sorting using bitonic networks, alternatively combined with LSD radix sort or simple pancake sort. That's of course a joke, it should be clear that you can use the built-in sorting functions (your own implementation will be certainly slower). '''Marjan 12Feb10 18:12''' |

| And just to clarify what a single-cycle permutation is. Here is an example for an array of size 5 with a permutation that is a single cycle: 5 4 1 3 2. Why single cycle? Well, A[1] = 5, A[5] = 2, A[2] = 4, A[4] = 3, A[3] = 1. (My indices in this example are 1,...,5 and not 0,...,4.) Here is an example of a permutation with three cycles: 2 1 4 3 5. The first cycle is A[1] = 2, A[2] =1. The second cycle is A[3] = 4, A[4] = 3. The third cycle is A[5] = 5. '''Hannah 12Nov09 8:04pm''' Hi Daniel + all, I don't quite understand your question and your example (if your array is 1 5 3 4 2, why is A[1] = 3?). In case you refer to the requirement of the exercise that the permutation consists only of a single cycle. That is because your code should go over each element exactly once (it should, of course, stop after n iterations, where n is the size of the array). If your permutation has more than one cycle, it is hard to achieve that. Also note that for both (1) and (2), the sum of the array values should be sum_i=1,...,n i = n * (n+1) / 2. '''Hannah 12Nov09 7:54pm''' Hi, I just looked at the new exercise sheet 4, in exercise 1 we should generate a permutation and sum the resulting array up, am I wrong or doesn't iterating method two iterate throw the whole array in every situation. for ex.: n= 5 permutation: 1 5 3 4 2, then A[1] = 3, A[A[1]]= A[3] = 1, A[1] = 3 ... '''Daniel 12Nov09 19:44pm''' |
What does "do a standard sort" in exercise 2 mean? Shall I implement one on my own, or may I use the Java built-in sorting mechanisms? Also, which sorting algorithm do you prefer for this? '''Eric 12Feb10 18:04''' |
