fastmatch 是 R 核心人员的一个小包,它对查找进行哈希处理,因此初始搜索,尤其是后续搜索更快。
您真正要做的是制作一个具有每个句子通用的预定义级别的因素。他的 C 代码中的缓慢步骤是对因子水平进行排序,您可以通过向他的因子函数的快速版本提供(唯一)因子水平列表来避免这种情况。
如果您只想要整数位置,您可以轻松地从因子转换为整数:很多都是不经意间这样做的。
您实际上根本不需要任何因素来满足您的需求,只需match。您的代码还会生成一个逻辑向量,然后从中重新计算位置:match 直接进入位置。
library(fastmatch)
library(microbenchmark)
WORDS <- read.table("https://dotnetperls-controls.googlecode.com/files/enable1.txt", stringsAsFactors = FALSE)[[1]]
words_factor <- as.factor(WORDS)
# generate 100 sentences of between 5 and 15 words:
SENTENCES <- lapply(c(1:100), sample, x = WORDS, size = sample(c(5:15), size = 1))
bench_fun <- function(fun)
lapply(SENTENCES, fun)
# poster's slow solution:
hg_convert <- function(sentence)
return(which(WORDS %in% sentence))
jw_convert_match <- function(sentence)
match(sentence, WORDS)
jw_convert_match_factor <- function(sentence)
match(sentence, words_factor)
jw_convert_fastmatch <- function(sentence)
fmatch(sentence, WORDS)
jw_convert_fastmatch_factor <- function(sentence)
fmatch(sentence, words_factor)
message("starting benchmark one")
print(microbenchmark(bench_fun(hg_convert),
bench_fun(jw_convert_match),
bench_fun(jw_convert_match_factor),
bench_fun(jw_convert_fastmatch),
bench_fun(jw_convert_fastmatch_factor),
times = 10))
# now again with big samples
# generating the SENTENCES is quite slow...
SENTENCES <- lapply(c(1:1e6), sample, x = WORDS, size = sample(c(5:15), size = 1))
message("starting benchmark two, compare with factor vs vector of words")
print(microbenchmark(bench_fun(jw_convert_fastmatch),
bench_fun(jw_convert_fastmatch_factor),
times = 10))
我把这个放在https://gist.github.com/jackwasey/59848d84728c0f55ef11
结果的格式不是很好,可以说,有或没有因子输入的快速匹配要快得多。

因此我暂时不会去麻烦并行实现。
