Extract a subset of a dfm
Returns document subsets of a dfm that meet certain conditions,
including direct logical operations on docvars (document-level variables).
dfm_subset functions identically to subset.data.frame(),
using non-standard evaluation to evaluate conditions based on the
docvars in the dfm.
dfm_subset(x, subset, drop_docid = TRUE, ...)
x |
dfm object to be subsetted |

logical expression indicating the documents to keep: missing values are taken as false |

To select or subset features, see dfm_select() instead.
When select is a dfm, then the returned dfm will be equal in
document dimension and order to the dfm used for selection. This is the
document-level version of using dfm_select() where
pattern is a dfm: that function matches features, while
dfm_subset will match documents.

corp <- corpus(c(d1 = "a b c d", d2 = "a a b e",
d3 = "b b c e", d4 = "e e f a b"),
docvars = data.frame(grp = c(1, 1, 2, 3)))
