[Corpora-List] MI for more than 2 items

[Gerlof Bouma]

Hello Mike,

Perhaps the following paper is of interest:


Tim Van de Cruys. Two Multivariate Generalizations of Pointwise Mutual Information.<http://www.timvandecruys.be/media/papers/VandeCruys2011Two.pdf> Proceedings of the ACL workshop Distributional Semantic and Compositionality (DISCO), pages 16–20, Portland, Oregon, USA.


Best,

Gerlof

Subject: [Corpora-List] MI for more than 2 items

I have had a query about MI (or any other similar statistic) involving more than two elements:

"I don't know how to calculate the Mutual Information (MI) for these 4-word lexical bundles, it seems I can only find the MI score for 2-word collocations."

Can anyone advise please?

Cheers -- Mike
