internals: Internal functions and methods

Description

These functions and methods are used internally and should usually not be called from outside the package.

Usage

begin(x, ...)
  nextPairs(x, n = 10000, ...)
  clear(x, ...)
  blockfldfun(blockfld, phoneticFld, phoneticFun, coln)
  getSQLStatement(object)
  init_sqlite_extensions(db)
  .allows_extensions(db)
  .lib_path()
  getPatternCounts(x, n=10000, cutoff=1, withProgressBar = (sink.number()==0))
  getMatchCount(object)
  getNACount(object)
  getDbFile(object)
  getColumnNames(object, withExcluded = FALSE)
  getThresholds(W, M, U, my, ny)
  countpattern(x, matching = FALSE)

Arguments

x, object
A "RLBigData" object (also "RLResult" for getDbFile. A matrix of binary observations for countpattern.
n
Maximum number of comparison patterns to fetch.
blockfld
Blocking definition as in RLBigData*.
phoneticFld
Indices of attributes for which phonetic code should be used.
phoneticFun
Name of phonetic function as in RLBigData*.
coln
Column names of records.
db
Database connection.
cutoff
Threshold from which string comparison values are rounded to 1.
withProgressBar
Whether to display a progress bar.
withExcluded
Logical. Wether to output names of excluded columns
W,M,U
Linkage weights, m- and u-probabilites. See emWeights for details.
W,M,U
Error bounds. See emClassify for details.
...
Optional arguments.
matching
If TRUE an additional vector is returned which stores which row belongs to which pattern.
