Test of RLP

RLP

• RLP: version 6.5.2 (platform dependant)
• RLP-Lucene: version 6.0.0 (Java library: platform independant)

Document base

• 113 documents, sized each 1 KB - 18 MB
• languages: latin, italian, english, german, french, dutch, greek, arabic, chinese

Hardware, operating system

• Mac Pro, Dual Core Intel Xeon 2,66 Ghz, 4GB RAM
• MacOS 10.5.4

Indexing

• done on ​eXist with Lucene (eXist 1.3dev)
• needed 1,3 hours (83 minutes)
• took most of the time full processor time (100%)
• less RAM consumption (< 500 MB)

Result

• application: see ​MPDL prototype with RLP analyzer (access only within MPIWG network)
• do a morphological index lookup in a document, e.g. ​for "a" in Delfino, Federico. De fluxu et refluxu aquae maris. Venice, 1559

Quality of indexing (random sample)

• base form reduction
  • latin: x of y not ok
  • english:
  • ...
  • overall:
  • in relation to Donatus/Snowball?:
• orthographic normalization:

Other observations

• double entries: same word forms seems to lead to different base forms (e.g. )
