Managing normalization

When you create dictionaries in TextChart Studio, you can arrange for lexical entries to be normalized to a standard entry. TextChart Studio also provides the ability to manage all such normalization in one place.

To see a list of the lexical entries that have been normalized, click Edit lexical norm values in the LxBase section of the vertical toolbar to open the Lexical Norm Values page.

Selecting a normalized value on the left of the page populates the list on the right with a list of the lexical entries that normalize to it. The buttons below the list provide the following features:

• Change changes the normalization value for all the selected entries.

• Remove removes the selected entries.

• Move moves the value from one semantic vector to another in the same entry.

• Add creates a lexical entry that uses this normalized value. You can specify the term, and assign it a semantic vector and a dictionary. For example:

  
  
  

  When you click Apply, the new entry appears in the list:
