keyphrase

Keyphrase

Extracts keywords from texts using a stoplist and some magic. This is forked from the original gem rake_text and has some added improvements.

• Multi-language support.
• Better split word support, handles - and ' characters better.
• Stop word is not removed if deemed important.

Installation

Install Keyphrase via RubyGem:

gem install keyphrase

Usage

Import the library and create an instance:

require 'keyphrase'
keyphrase = Keyphrase.new

Use a custom stopword list:

keyphrase.analyse "your text", stopwords: %w{words to remove here}
# → {"compatibility"=>1.0, "systems"=>1.0, "linear constraints"=>4.5, "set"=>2.0, "natural numbers"=>4.0, "criteria"=>1.0, "system"=>1.0, "linear diophantine equations"=>8.5, "strict inequations"=>4.0, "nonstrict inequations"=>4.0, "considered"=>1.5, "upper bounds"=>4.0, "components"=>1.0, "minimal set"=>4.666666666666666, "solutions"=>1.0, "algorithms"=>1.0, "construction"=>1.0, "minimal generating sets"=>8.666666666666666, "types"=>1.6666666666666667, "constructing"=>1.0, "minimal supporting set"=>7.666666666666666, "solving"=>1.0, "considered types"=>3.166666666666667, "mixed types"=>3.666666666666667}

Use a stopword list for a language:

keyphrase.analyse "your text", lang: :kor

See lib/keyphrase/stoplist for all supported languages.

Shorthand usage:

Keyphrase.analyse "your text"

keyphrase.analyse "your text", verbose: true

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
