ILSP Focused Crawler

# Near Deduplication

Examines the cesDoc files in a directory and removes (near)duplicates.

It processes the exported cesDoc files (so the argument of option -i should be the crawlpath up to the "xml" directory) and detects near duplicates.

It also creates a text file (based on the argument of option -bs) with a list of the fullpaths of the remaining cesDoc files.

If asked (-oxslt option is used) an HTML file with links pointing to the xls transformations is generated too.

## Options

```

-dedup		:	for (near) deduplication.

-m 		: Method type for deduplication: 1 for deduplication based on lists of words and quantized frequencies, 2 for deduplication based on common paragraphs, and 0 for applying both methods (default).

-mtl 		: minimum length of a token. Tokens with less than MIN_TOK_LEN (default is 3) are excluded from content and are not included into list of words.

-mpl 		: minimum length of a paragraph in tokens. Paragraphs with less than MIN_PAR_LEN (default is 3) tokens are excluded from content.

-ithr 	: intersection of paragraphs. Documents for which the ratio the common paragraphs

        		with the shortest of them is more than this threshold are considered duplicates

-int 		: inputType. Type of input files, default is xml, also supports txt.

-ex 		: exclude files. List of CesDocFiles (separated by ;) to be excluded from deduplication.

-bs     :     Basename to be used in generating all files for easier content navigation

-oxslt  :     Export crawl results with the help of an xslt file for better examination of results.
