Hi Ken,
Thanks for looking at this! Sorry for not being as clear as I could've
been with what I'm looking for. For the example data set, I'm trying to
automatically generate an output something like this:
Aa + C + Qqq: 2 places (1, 3)
Aa + C: 3 places (1, 2, 3)
Aa + Zz: 2 places (2, 3)
C + Qqq: 2 places (1, 3)
So it lists all the groups of 2+ words that appear together in 2+
places. This list is sorted by length of the group (3 words is the
maximum number of words that occurs in 2+ places in the sample data),
but it'd be nice to also be able to sort by number of places:
Aa + C: 3 places (1, 2, 3)
Aa + Zz: 2 places (2, 3)
etc.
I was using intersects to get places with Aa AND C AND Qqq
(<xsl:value-of
select="count(atlas/place/place_number[../words/word='Aa'] intersect
atlas/place/place_number[../words/word='C'])"/>), but got overwhelmed by
the number of ways I'd have to plug in all the different words to go
through the data exhaustively-- the real data has 250+ places and 75+ words.

I'm trying to calculate all of the groups of 2+ elements (in the
sample data below, words) that appear together in more than one
place. Ideally, I'd like to be able to sort descending both by length
of group (5-word group, 4-word groups, etc), and by number of places
the groups occur (100 places, 99 places, etc.) I also need to be able
to list the place numbers where they occur.
You don't show how these places are to be listed, so I guessed.
I started doing it manually this way but the number of possible
combinations quickly became too big a task:
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:value-of
select="count(atlas/place/place_number[../words/word='Aa'] intersect
atlas/place/place_number[../words/word='C'])"/>
</template>
(adding more "intersects" as necessary, and getting rid of the
"count" to see the place numbers)
Not sure where you are going with the intersects, so I approached this
as a grouping problem.
Here's a sample of the data. Almost every word appears in multiple
places, but each appears only once in the index, which I've used in
other applications for matching to avoid re-calculating stats for the
word over and over. Any help would be wonderful!
I hope the code below helps, though I am a bit unclear on what you
want so my comments should reveal what I think you want.
