DESCRIPTION

DiaColloDB::Profile::MultiDiff is the top-level class for representing diachronic collocate frequency comparison-profile data over multiple date-slices as arising from the comparison of two DiaColloDB::Profile::Multi objects. The API closely mirrors that of the DiaColloDB::Profile::Diff class used to represent slice-wise sub-profiles.

Globals & Constants

Variable: @ISA

DiaColloDB::Profile::MultiDiff inherits from DiaColloDB::Profile::Multi.

Constructors etc.

new
$mpd = CLASS_OR_OBJECT->new(%args);
$mpd = CLASS_OR_OBJECT->new($mp1,$mp2,%args);

%args, object structure:

profiles => \@profiles,   ##-- ($profile, ...) : sub-diffs, with {label} key
titles   => \@titles,     ##-- item group titles (default:undef: unknown)
qinfo    => \%qinfo,      ##-- query info (optional; keys prefixed with 'a' or 'b'): see DiaColloDB::Profile::Multi
populate => $bool,        ##-- auto-populate() if $mp1 and $mp2 are specified? (default=1)

I/O: JSON

loadJsonData
$obj = $CLASS_OR_OBJECT->loadJsonData( $data,%opts);

guts for loadJsonString(), loadJsonFile()

I/O: Text

saveTextHeader
undef = $CLASS_OR_OBJECT->saveTextHeader($fh, hlabel=>$hlabel, titles=>\@titles);

print column title header for text output.

I/O: HTML

saveHtmlFile
$bool = $mp->saveHtmlFile($filename_or_handle, %opts);

Save flat HTML table data with rows of the form

SCOREa SCOREb DIFF LABEL ITEM2...

table  => $bool,     ##-- include <table>..</table> ? (default=1)
body   => $bool,     ##-- include <html><body>..</html></body> ? (default=1)
qinfo  => $varname,  ##-- include <script> for qinfo data? (default='qinfo')
header => $bool,     ##-- include header-row? (default=1)
format => $fmt,      ##-- printf score formatting (default="%.2f")

Compilation

align
 @ppairs = $CLASS_OR_OBJECT->align($mp1,$mp2);
\@ppairs = $CLASS_OR_OBJECT->align($mp1,$mp2);
  • aligns subprofile-pairs from $mp1 and $mp2

  • $mp1, $mp2 are either:

    HASH-refs

    with a 'profiles' key (e.g. DiaColloDB::Profile::Multi objects)

    ARRAY-refs

    of DiaColloDB::Profile-like objects to align

  • subprofiles are aligned in stored order

  • arguments must be EITHER singletons (1 subprofile) OR of same size; this lets you compare e.g. a global profile with a sliced one by something like PDL's "implicit threading".

populate
$mpd = $mpd->populate($mp1,$mp2);

populates multi-diff by subtracting $mp2 sub-profile scores from $mp1; uses $mpd->align() to align sub-profiles.

pclass
$class = $CLASS_OR_OBJECT->pclass();

subprofile class for psum().

trimPairs
$mp_or_undef = $CLASS_OR_OBJECT->trimPairs(\@pairs, %opts);

%opts: as for DiaColloDB::Profile::Multi::trim(), including 'global' option
