Integrate with the ESCO API to retrieve latest data in a tidy format.

I have a feature request: it will be great if the package enabled user to supply his/her own dictionary of names connected with each ISCO occupation.

This will be useful while applying package to survey data. On the one hand respondents' answers to questions regarding occupations are somewhat different from official names of occupations, so specific (survey) dictionary may be useful to improve quality of codding. On the other hand there is a lot of data from previous research that contain human coded mapping of respndents' answers to ISCO codes, that may be used as dictionaries.

And besides I'd like to thank you for this very useful package!

Hi there -

Really great to see an R package for converting occupation descriptions to ISCO-08 codes.

Could you describe the process of making the tfidf_tokens dataset though. Does it just use the description field?

Also, I think the matching algorithm can be improved not just by taking the sum of the tfidf scores as it does not penalise for when a term is not in the matched tfidf score.

For example,

'bus driver' returns (num_leaves = 10) best match as:

• 8332 Heavy truck and lorry drivers

The weightTokens match for this is:

Whereas 8331 Bus and tram drivers is in the occupations dataset. But the weightTokens are:

Therefore 8332 Heavy truck and lorry drivers is not being penalised for not having 'bus' in it.

I will have a see if the matcher can add a penalty to it if all words aren't in the weighTokens.

Prepare for release:

Allow custom tfidf calculated from tf_idf() to be used for occupation coding.

Map identify_language() with existing ESCO languages and give a list.

Hi - any chance to offer concordance functions with NOC?

great stuff!

Update to latest ESCO release

Use co-occurrence to allow for a second way of matching with the ESCO classification.
