摘要
En 中文
The automated classification of texts into predefined categories has witnessed a booming interest, due to the increased availability of documents in digital form and the ensuing need to organize them. An important problem for text classification is feature selection, whose goals are to improve classification effectiveness, computational efficiency, or both. Due to categorization unbalancedness and feature sparsity in social text collection, filter methods may work poorly. In this paper, we perform feature selection in the training process, automatically selecting the best feature subset by learning, from a set of preclassified documents, the characteristics of the categories. We propose a generative probabilistic model, describing categories by distributions, handling the feature selection problem by introducing a binary exclusion/inclusion latent vector, which is updated via an efficient Metropolis search. Real-life examples illustrate the effectiveness of the approach. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
