[infomap-nlp-users] Upper case chars / Limitation of columns

[Tonio W. <ton...@un...>]

Hello,

first of all: Thank you very much for making your software available. It
spares me a lot of work!
I have two questions concerning the model construction.

1. Is there a switch to allow upper case characters without modifying the
code? Even though I have "A-Z" included in valid.chars list, all words are
transformed to lower case.

2. Is there a reason why the maximum number of columns is set to 2999 ? I
would like to try out squared termxterm matrices, as used by Reinhard Rapp
(2003), who got excellent results in the TOEFL synonym test.
Does anyone have experiences about the optimal number of columns?

Thank you very much in advance !

Tonio
