• Java 1.8.0_60

• GATE NLP Framework 8.1 release

• R statistical computing environment, v 3.1.2

Installation steps

You can run REGICE from the command line after following these steps:

1. Download the REGICE zip file. [Download].

2. Unzip the contents of the files.

3. Execute REGICE.jar from the command line, from the path where the unzipped folder is saved.

   2. If you want to load the default settings and some example requirements (provided in the tool distribution)

      1. Use --default (No other parameter is required after this)

• • • java -jar REGICE.jar "$GATE_PATH" --default

    • Example: java -jar REGICE.jar "/Applications/GATE_Developer_8.1/" --default

4. 3. If the default option is not selected, one needs to give 3 more parameters after GATE NLP framework

• • 1. Full path to the requirements document in a TXT file [provide "" (empty double quotes) to load example requirements from the article]

    2. Name of the semantic measure [Possible choices are "HSO" , "RES" , "JCN" , "LIN", "LESK", "PATH", "LCH", "WUP", or "" (Leave empty for using only syntactic similarity]

    3. Number of clusters [Provide 0 for algorithm to automatically choose number of clusters based on an internal procedure]

• • • java -jar REGICE.jar "$GATE_PATH" "$Requirements_Path" "$Semantic" "$Num_Clusters"

    • Example: java -jar REGICE.jar "/Applications/GATE_Developer_8.1/" "/Users/chetan.arora/Desktop/REGICE_Reqs.txt" "JCN" "0"
