ItsdbProfile
This page is a brief introduction to the profiles used by itsdb (see ItsdbTop). For more information, see the [http://www.delph-in.net/itsdb/publications/manual.pdf User & Reference Manual].
A Competence and Performance Profile is a test suite instance that includes competence and performance information from a processing system (such as a parser or generator) and a grammar (and possibly pre-processor).
A profile typically is made up of a directory consisting of a database stored as several text files. The format of the files is controlled by the relations file. The most up-to-date relations file should be here: [http://svn.emmtee.net/trunk/lingo/lkb/src/tsdb/skeletons/english/Relations]. Within each file, the rows are lines, and the columns are separated by the @ mark.
Profiles can be manipulated within itsdb proper (the default) and some other [wiki:ToolsTop tools].
Some of the files are described below. Note, however, that the itsdb database schema is subject to occassional revision; the [http://svn.emmtee.net/trunk/lingo/lkb/src/tsdb/skeletons/english/Relations canonical current version] is available through SVN.
Schema
item:
i-id :integer :key
i-origin :string
i-register :string
i-format :string
i-difficulty :integer
i-category :string
i-input :string
i-tokens :string
i-gloss :string
i-translation :string
i-wf :integer
i-length :integer
i-comment :string
i-author :string
i-date :date
This is the input file. The actual input is typically column 7: i-input. If it is tokenized/pre-processed before processing, the results of this should go into field 8: i-tokens.
This gives some information about the configuration of the actual test-run, including the processing engine and grammar versions.
run:
run-id :integer :key # unique test run identifier
run-comment :string # descriptive narrative
platform :string # implementation platform (version)
tsdb :string # tsdb(1) (version) used
application :string # application (version) used
environment :string # application-specific information
grammar :string # grammar (version) used
avms :integer # number of avm types in image
sorts :integer # number of sort types in image
templates :integer # number of templates in image
lexicon :integer # number of lexical entries
lrules :integer # number of lexical rules
rules :integer # number of (non-lexical) rules
user :string # user who did the test run
host :string # machine used for this run
os :string # operating system (version)
start :date # start time of this test run
end :date # end time for this test run
items :integer # number of test items in this run
status :string # exit status (PVM only)
This gives information about the entire process for a single input item: this information is mainly used for competence/performance profiling. The i-id should be linked to the id in item.
parse:
parse-id :integer :key # unique parse identifier
run-id :integer :key # test run for this parse
i-id :integer :key # item parsed
p-input :string # initial (pre-processed) parser input
p-tokens :string # internal parser input: lexical lookup
readings :integer # number of readings obtained
first :integer # time to find first reading (msec)
total :integer # total time for parsing (msec)
tcpu :integer # total (cpu) processing time (msec)
tgc :integer # gc time used (msec)
treal :integer # overall real time (msec)
words :integer # lexical entries retrieved
l-stasks :integer # successful lexical rule applications
p-ctasks :integer # parser contemplated tasks (LKB)
p-ftasks :integer # parser filtered tasks
p-etasks :integer # parser executed tasks
p-stasks :integer # parser succeeding tasks
aedges :integer # active items in chart (PAGE)
pedges :integer # passive items in chart
raedges :integer # active items contributing to result
rpedges :integer # passive items contributing to result
unifications :integer # number of (node) unifications
copies :integer # number of (node) copy operations
conses :integer # cons() cells allocated
symbols :integer # symbols allocated
others :integer # bytes of memory allocated
gcs :integer # number of garbage collections
i-load :integer # initial load (start of parse)
a-load :integer # average load
date :date # date and time of parse
error :string # error string (if applicable |:-)
comment :string # application-specific comment
This stores the actual result of the processing. There may be multiple results for a single input. The i-id should be linked to the id in item, the parse-id to the is in parse. Typically this file will be used as input by any post-processors, such as exporting, transfer, generation and so on.
result:
parse-id :integer :key # parse for this result
result-id :integer # unique result identifier
time :integer # time to find this result (msec)
r-ctasks :integer # parser contemplated tasks
r-ftasks :integer # parser filtered tasks
r-etasks :integer # parser executed tasks
r-stasks :integer # parser succeeding tasks
size :integer # size of feature structure
r-aedges :integer # active items for this result
r-pedges :integer # passive items in this result
derivation :string # derivation tree for this reading
surface :string # surface string (e.g. realization)
tree :string # phrase structure tree (CSLI labels)
mrs :string # mrs for this reading
flags :string # arbitrary annotation (e.g. BLEU)
