opensemanticapi with NodeJS

This project exists in two different languages:

• go lang
• NodeJS

===========================

Works with NodeJS, Restify, UnderscoreJS and Redis

Description

Will allow you to create your own semantic wording database with redis. Otherwise there will be a open api to get related words by meaning. You could say, this implementation is a light version of the idea behind http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_semantic_analysis in combination with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-source_intelligence

Examples

The following examples where given after the system was collecting for about one hour only.

1. Example (http://localhost:8080/relations/ship):

• Input: "ship"

2. Example (http://localhost:8080/relations/human):

• Input: "human"

• Output: ["humans", "evolution", "primates", "ago", "ado", "studies", "physiology", "bonobo"]

3. Example (http://localhost:8080/relations/dog):

• Input: "dog"

• Output: ["infant", "wildlife", "offspring", "mother", "future", "southwest", "koalas", "conflict", "animals", "aitken", "wolf", "urban", "rehabilitation", "pet", "perspective", "nursing", "mexico", "evolutionary", "weaning", "ticket", "texas", "speech", "special", "retrospective", "primate", "holtcamp", "fund", "enough", "domestic", "cost", "arizona", "210–217", "variety", "trivers", "trauma", "terms", "sprawl", "southwestern", "sense", "river", "received", "questions", "point", "perhaps", "parent", "otter", "makes", "little", "less", "himself", "gray", "gorilla", "frequently"]

Installation Guide

• install npm and node if you have not already (http://howtonode.org/introduction-to-npm or http://nodejs.org/)

• install / start your redis server (http://redis.io/topics/quickstart) on a disk with several free GB

• clone this repo "git clone https://github.com/monbro/opensemanticapi.git"

• change config if needed in "/config.js"

• NOTE: depending on what you want (scraper / cronjob to run or http api server, set 'http_server' to true or false)

• open the repository folder in your console

• enter "npm install", it will install all dependencies automatically

• start the node server with "node app.js"

• now it should print what it is collecting or what http route is requested

• the longer it collects data the better the results should be

• now you can access the relations through your browser like http://localhost:8080/relations/database or direct by accessing your redis server

To Do

• improve performance of script
• allow certain configurations (half done)
• try to use http://yeoman.io/ with its structure for more compatibility and understanding
• write tests
• connect to travis-ci
• better folder structure
• write version using level db or similar
