Label Propagation for Text Classification Using Latent Topics

抄録

The objective of this paper is to raise the accuracy of multiclass text classification through Graph-Based Semi-Supervised Learning (GBSSL). In GBSSL, it is essential to construct a proper graph which expresses the relation among nodes. We propose a method to construct a similarity graph by employing both surface information and latent information to express similarity between nodes. Experimenting on a Reuters-21578 corpus, we have confirmed that our proposal works well in raising the accuracy of GBSSL in a multiclass text classification task.
