Generate keyword counts

KWCounts generates keyword counts from PGR passport database fields(columns).

KWCounts(x, fields, excep)

Arguments

x	A data frame.
fields	A character vector with the names of fields(columns) of the data frame from which KWIC index is to be generated. The first field is considered as the primary key or identifier (see Details).
excep	A vector of the keywords not to be considered for the counts (see Details).

Value

A data frame with the keyword counts for each record.

Details

This function computes the keyword counts from PGR passport database fields(columns) specified in the fields argument. The first field is considered as the primary key or identifier and is not used for counting the keywords. Any strings given in the excep argument are ignored for generating the counts.

The keyword counts can give a rough indication of the completeness of the data in the database fields being used for identification of probable duplicates.

Note

For large number of exceptions and/or large data.frame computation of keyword counts may take some time.

# Compute the keyword counts
