Constraints

Certain restrictions apply because the linguistic processing development for these additional languages is still at a relatively early stage. TREX functions such as search, attribute query, query-based classification, and other functions that use text-mining functions rarely or never work at the same level of quality as for fully supported languages.

However, the linguistic text-mining functions sometimes delivery results of less quality that in the case for the fully supported languages. Results of poor quality can occur in the following areas:

• Feature extraction

  Automatically calculated document and/or class features may be of poor quality.

• Example-based classification

  When using this classification method the elements may be classified less precisely.

• Linguistic search

  Incomplete or unexpected grammatical variations of a search term may be returned in the search results list.
