Abstract
Text categorization is one of the most common themes in data mining and machine learning fields. Unlike structured data, unstructured text data is more complicated to be analyzed because it contains too much information, e.g., syntactic and semantic. In this paper, we propose a semantics-based model to represent text data in two levels. One level is for syntactic information and the other is for semantic information. Syntactic level represents each document as a term vector, and the component records tf-idf value of each term. The semantic level represents document with Wikipedia concepts related to terms in syntactic level. The syntactic and semantic information are efficiently combined by our proposed multi-layer classification framework. Experimental results on benchmark dataset (Reuters-21578) have shown that the proposed representation model plus proposed classification framework improves the performance of text classification by comparing with the flat text representation models (term VSM, concept VSM, term+concept VSM) plus existing classification methods.
