Subject

, character strings, text, ICU, Unicode, regular expressions, data cleansing,
natural language processing, R.

Description

Effective processing of character strings is required at various stages of data analysis
pipelines: from data cleansing and preparation, through information extraction, to report
generation. Pattern searching, string collation and sorting, normalization, transliteration,
and formatting are ubiquitous in text mining, natural language processing, and bioinformatics. This paper discusses and demonstrates how and why stringi, a mature R package
for fast and portable handling of string data based on ICU (International Components
for Unicode), should be included in each statistician’s or data scientist’s repertoire to
complement their numerical computing and data wrangling skills
