CANDIDATESCORE: Score candidate expressions

Description

Provides each candidate expression for some meaning or function with a score in which (depending on the model settings) semantic match, lexeme activation, (relative) frequency of use, recency, collostruction frequency, semantic weight, and/or economy of expression are taken into consideration.

Usage

CANDIDATESCORE(lexicon, type = "referringExpression")

Arguments

lexicon

type

Type of function for which an expression has to be found (referringExpression, nounMarker, verbMarker, or pronoun).
