Natural Language Text Classification and Filtering with Trigrams and Evolutionary Nearest Neighbour Classifiers

نویسنده

  • W. B. Langdon
چکیده

N grams o er fast language independent multi-class text categorization. Text is reduced in a single pass to ngram vectors. These are assigned to one of several classes by a) nearest neighbour (KNN) and b) genetic algorithm operating on weights in a nearest neighbour classi er. 91% accuracy is found on binary classi cation on short multi-author technical English documents. This falls if more categories are used but 69% is obtained with 8 classes. Zipf law is found not to apply to trigrams. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classi cation: 68T05, 68T2

Spam Classification Using Nearest Neighbour Techniques

Spam mail classification and filtering is a commonly investigated problem, yet there has been little research into the application of nearest neighbour classifiers in this field. This paper examines the possibility of using a nearest neighbour algorithm for simple, word based spam mail classification. This approach is compared to a neural network, and decision-tree along with results published ...

Generating Estimates of Classification Confidence for a Case-Based Spam Filter

Producing estimates of classification confidence is surprisingly difficult. One might expect that classifiers that can produce numeric classification scores (e.g. k-Nearest Neighbour or Naive Bayes) could readily produce confidence estimates based on thresholds. In fact, this proves not to be the case, probably because these are not probabilistic classifiers in the strict sense. The numeric sco...

Arabic Part of speech Tagging using k-Nearest Neighbour and Naive Bayes Classifiers Combination

Part Of Speech (POS) tagging forms the important preprocessing step in many of the natural language processing applications such as text summarization, question answering and information retrieval system. It is the process of classifying every word in a given context to its appropriate part of speech. Different POS tagging techniques in the literature have been developed and experimented. Curre...

Paragraph-based nearest neighbour searching in full-text documents

This paper discusses the searching of full-text documents to identify paragraphs that are relevant to a user request. Given a natural language query statement, a nearest neighbour search involves ranking the paragraphs comprising a full-text document in order of descending similarity with the query, where the similarity for each paragraph is determined by the number of keyword stems that it has...
