Multi - Class Document Classification : Effective and Systematized Method to Categorize Documents

Abstract

A large section of World Wide Web is full of Documents, content; Data, Big data, unformatted data, formatted data, unstructured and unorganized data and we need information infrastructure, which is useful and easily accessible as an when required. This research work is combining approach of Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning for content-based classification of documents. Natural Language Processing is used which will divide the problem of understanding entire document at once into smaller chucks and give us only with useful tokens responsible for Feature Extraction, which is machine learning technique to create Feature Set which helps to train classifier to predict label for new document and place it at appropriate location. Machine Learning subset of Artificial Intelligence is enriched with sophisticated algorithms like Support Vector Machine, K – Nearest Neighbor, Naïve Bayes, which works well with many Indian Languages and Foreign Language content’s for classification. This Model is successful in classifying documents with more than 70% of accuracy for major Indian Languages and more than 80% accuracy for English Language.
