Empirical investigation of fast text classification over linguistic features

Roberto Basili, Alessandro Moschitti, Maria Teresa Pazienza

Recently, an original extension of the well-known Rocchio model (i.e. the Generalized Rocchio Classifier (GRC)) as a feature weighting method for text classification has been presented. The assessment of such a model requires a statistically motivated parameter estimation method and wider empirical evidence. In this paper, three different corpora have been adopted in two languages. Results suggest that GRC, integrating linguistic information, is a viable more efficient alternative to state-of-art TC systems.
