Text Clustering and Classification Techniques using Data Mining

Abstract

Text classification is the task of automatically sorting a set of documents into categories from a predefined set. Text Classification is a data mining technique used to predict group membership for data instances within a given dataset. It is used for classifying data into different classes by considering some constrains. Instead of traditional feature selection techniques used for text document classification. A Naive Bayesian model is easy to build, with no complicated iterative parameter estimation which makes it particularly useful for very large datasets. Automated Text categorization and class prediction is important for text categorization to reduce the feature size and to speed up the learning process of classifiers.
