Unsupervised Aggregation of Categories for Document Labelling

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 8502))

Abstract

We present a novel algorithm of document categorization, assigning multiple labels out of a large set of hierarchically arranged (but not necessarily tree-like) set of possible categories. It extends our Wikipedia-based method presented in [1] via unsupervised aggregation (generalization) of document categories. We compare resulting categorization with the original (not aggregated) version and with the variant which transforms categories to a manually selected set of labels.
