=head1 NAME
Text::NSP::Measures::3D::MI::ps - Perl module that implements
Poisson Stirling Measure for trigrams.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
=head3 Basic Usage
use Text::NSP::Measures::3D::MI::ps;
$ps_value = calculateStatistic( n111=>10,
n1pp=>40,
np1p=>45,
npp1=>42,
n11p=>20,
n1p1=>23,
np11=>21,
nppp=>100);
if( ($errorCode = getErrorCode()))
{
print STDERR $erroCode." - ".getErrorMessage()."\n";
}
else
{
print getStatisticName."value for bigram is ".$ps_value."\n";
}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The log-likelihood ratio measures the devitation between the observed data
and what would be expected if <word1>, <word2> and <word3> were independent.
The higher the score, the less evidence there is in favor of concluding that
the words are independent.
The expected values for the internal cells are calculated by taking the
product of their associated marginals and dividing by the sample size,
for example:
n1pp * np1p * npp1
m111= --------------------
nppp
The poisson stirling measure is a negative lograthimic approximation
of the poisson-likelihood measure. It uses the stirlings firmula to
approximate the factorial in poisson-likelihood measure. It is
computed as follows:
Posson-Stirling = n111 * ( log(n111) - log(m111) - 1)
