چکیده

Recent work has shown that ontologies are useful to improve the performance of text clustering. In this paper, we present a new clustering scheme on the basis of ontologies-based distance measure. Before implementing clustering process, term mutual information matrix is calculated with the aid of Wordnet and some methods of learning ontologies from textual data. Combining this mutual information matrix and the traditional vector space model, we design a new data model (considering the correlation between terms) on which the Euclidean distance measure can be used, and then run two k-means type clustering algorithms on the real-world text data. Our results show that ontologies-based distance measure makes text clustering approaches perform better.
