Interface Summary

Interface	Description
VectorSimilarity	Interface for implementing vector similarity measures.

Class Summary

Class	Description
Cluster	This class provides methods that operate on sets of semantically similar words or collocations.
Compositionality	This class provides support for compositional distributional semantics.
ConfigFile	This class contains methods for creating, reading and accessing the configuration file "disco.config".
CosineVectorSimilarity	Computes the cosine similarity between two vectors.
DenseMatrix	This stores a word space in a dense matrix.
DenseVector	Basic vector algebra for dense vectors (float arrays).
DISCO	DISCO (Extracting DIStributionally Similar Words Using CO-occurrences) provides a number of methods for computing the distributional (i.e.
DISCOLuceneIndex	The methods in this class work with word spaces stored in the form of Lucene indexes.
Evaluation
KolbVectorSimilarity
Main	This class provides the command line interface for DISCO.
Ngrams	Extracting character n-grams from words.
Rank	This class contains methods that are based on the rank a word occupies in the similarity list of other words.
ReturnDataBN	This class provides a data structure that is used as return value for the method DISCO.similarWords().
ReturnDataCol	This class provides a data structure that is used as return value by several methods in the DISCO package.
SparseVector	Methods for sparse vectors.
Subword	This deals with ngrams stored in a DenseMatrix.
TextSimilarity	This class provides methods to compute the semantic similarity between two short texts, i.e.

Enum Summary

Enum	Description
Compositionality.VectorCompositionMethod	Implemented methods of vector composition.
ConfigFile.FileFormat	Known file formats.
DISCO.SimilarityMeasure	Available measures for vector comparison.
DISCO.WordspaceType	Available word space types (SIM = word space contains lists of pre-computed similar words for each word, COL = word space contains only word vectors).

Exception Summary

Exception	Description
CorruptConfigFileException	Exception that is thrown when some information that should be present in the file disco.config in the word space directory can not be read.
WrongWordspaceTypeException	This exception is thrown when a method that only works with word spaces of type WordspaceType.SIM is called with a word space of type WordspaceType.COL.
