- Project title: Influence of the Hippie Movement Bringing Indian Themes into Western Literature
- Project data set: Google Ngrams - 1gram (English)
Project Tasks
- Identifying and downloading the target data set
This project uses Google Ngrams - 1gram (English) which can be downloaded from [1] 0-10 CSV files.
- Data cleaning and pre-processing
The raw CSV file values are separated by TABS so I had to use a script to replace TABS with COMMAS as follows: tr '\t' ',' <input_file.csv>output_file.csv
- Load the data into your Postgres instance
I used a script which when piped into postgres drops existing tables, creates the tables, copies the data in, and then indexes the tables.
- Develop queries to explore your ideas in the data
- Develop and document the model function you are exploring in the data
- Develop a visualization to show the model/patterns in the data
Tech Details
- Node: as6
- Path to storage space: /scratch/big-data/leif
Results
- The visualization(s)
- The story
