About Verbatim Specific Rules

A verbatim specific rule categorizes sentences by terms that occur in the verbatim rather than the sentence. These rules are useful when working with social media data where sentence boundaries and style can differ.

  • A verbatim specific rule is a match if any sentence in the verbatim has that rule. When the rule is true, all sentences and verbatims from that document get categorized.
  • If a verbatim specific rule is applied to a category group, it will also be applied to all categories within that group.
Qtip: Basic and extended queries have an AND relationship, so the text gets categorized only if both conditions are met. If multiple rules are created they have an OR relationship, so the text gets categorized when at least one of the conditions is met.
