Hi,

It looks like there is no way to control the similarity threshold as a
parameter, but you can easily modify the script to do this. Edit the
script in MEAD_HOME/bin/feature-scripts/lexrank/getcos.pl. Replace
these lines:

$cosine = GetLexSim ($l,$m);
print "$i $j $cosine\n";
print "$j $i $cosine\n";

with:

my $thresh = 0.1; # or whatever value you want
my $sim = GetLexSim ($l, $m);
if ($sim > $thresh) {
print "$i $j $sim\n";
print "$j $i $sim\n";
} else {
print "$i $j 0\n";
print "$j $i 0\n";
}

Let me know if this doesn't work, and I will try to find a better way.
