Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Text mining is defined as the process of extract implicit knowledge from textual data, as a special type of data mining. Main instances of text mining are text classification, text clustering, text summarization, and text segmentation. The text classification means the process of classifying a text into one among predefined categories; especially, spam mail filtering is the typical instance of text categorization. Text clustering means the process of segmenting a group of texts into subgroups each of which contains content based similar texts. Recently, as well as machine learning algorithms, such as K Nearest Neighbour, Naïve Bayes, and Support Vector Machine, deep learning algorithms are applied to the text classification.

The Special Issue on “Text Mining: Classification, Clustering, and Summarization” aims to improve the performances of each text mining tasks by applying deep learning algorithms, to derive hybrid tasks by combing the text mining tasks with each other, and to apply the text mining tasks to the real problems such as fraud document detection and financial prediction. Authors should submit papers describing significant, original and unpublished work. Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Machine Learning Algorithms to improve Text Mining Tasks
  • Application of Deep Learning Algorithms to Text Mining Tasks
  • Application of Text Mining System to Real Tasks
  • Hybrid Text Mining Tasks
  • Web Mining: Web Contents Mining, Web Structure Mining, and Web Usage Mining
  • Multimedia Mining: Hybrid Mining of Multimedia Data

One way to increase the understanding of texts by machines is through adding semantic information to lexical items by including metadata tags, a process also called semantic annotation. There are several semantic aspects that can be added to the words, among them the information about the nature of the concept denoted through the association with a category of an ontology. The application of ontologies in the annotation task can span multiple domains. However, this particular research focused its approach on top-level ontologies due to its generalizing characteristic. Considering that annotation is an arduous task that demands time and specialized personnel to perform it, much is done on ways to implement the semantic annotation automatically. The use of machine learning techniques are the most effective approaches in the annotation process. Another factor of great importance for the success of the training process of the supervised learning algorithms is the use of a sufficiently large corpus and able to condense the linguistic variance of the natural language. In this sense, this article aims to present an automatic approach to enrich documents from the American English corpus through a CRF model for semantic annotation of ontologies from Schema.org top-level. The research uses two approaches of the model obtaining promising results for the development of semantic annotation based on top-level ontologies. Although it is a new line of research, the use of top-level ontologies for automatic semantic enrichment of texts can contribute significantly to the improvement of text interpretation by machines.
