help on using an existing word list with the process documents operator

Hello,

For some reason I am unable to make the process documents operator to create a word vector when I feed in an existing word list to it. On running the process, the process documents operator creates a word vector wherein the value of all attributes (supplied by the word list) is zero for all examples. This is impossible as I have created the word list on the same data set. Is there a bug? or am I doing something wrong?

XML pasted below. Thanks for your help!

    Further information on my earlier post. I see that I have a problem only when I try to create a TF-IDF vector. I get non-zero values for all others (Term Frequency, etc.)

    Thanks

    Hi,

    are you doing exactly the same things inside Process Documents? Both have just a tokenize inside?

    Cheers,

    Hi Martin,

    No I am not using the same tokenize - I cannot do so - because here is how I do it

    1. In the first step, I tokenize and extract  a word list - 1 from the data set
    2. Subsequently, I only want to use select parts of speech words to generate a vector, so I have written the word list - 1 from step 1 to a file and run a POS tokenize on this word list - 1 to extract a sub-set of tokens in a word list -2.
    3. The process that I sent to you uses this word-list 2 and gives me zero values for TF-IDF vector for the same data set as in step 1. Interestingly I tried using Generate TF-IDF operator after process operator (but then generating a TF- vector) and I do get non-zero values

    Let me know if this is unclear and thanks for your help!
