Abstract

In this paper, we study on Chinese text classification using character-based approach (N-gram) and word-based approach and propose the use of uni-gram, bi-gram and word features of length greater than or equal to three. A weight coefficient which can be used to give higher weights to word features is also introduced. We further investigate a serial approach based on feature transformation and dimension reduction techniques to improve the performance. Experimental results show that our proposed approach is efficient and effective for improving the performance of Chinese text classification.
