[CWB] Relative frequencies in CWB

[Meier-Vieracker, Simon]

Hi,

I have started to work with CWB Perl API in order to calculate relative frequencies of query results grouped by certain attributes (~ i.e. Distribution function of CQPweb). My script works well (although quite slow), but I was wondering if there is a way to do this in CWB directly.

My corpus has the attribute text_year, so I can get the absolute frequencies with:

> A = "word";
> group A match text_year;

I can get the subcorpus size with

> B = []:
> group B match text_year;

and set it off against the results of "group A". But is there a way to do this in one step?

Best, Simon
