Intelligent Internet Data Searching

Abstract

In this thesis author approaches the problem of automated text classification, which is one of basic tasks for building Intelligent Internet Search Agent. The work discusses various approaches to solving sub-problems of automated text classification, such as feature extraction and machine learning on text sources. Author also describes her own multiword approach to feature extraction and pres-ents the results of testing this approach using linear discriminant analysis based classifier, and classifier combining unsupervised learning for etalon extraction with supervised learning using common backpropagation algorithm for multilevel perceptron.
