An Improved Information Retrieval Approach to Short Text Classification

By Indrajit Mukherjee Sudip Sahana P.K. Mahanti

Twitter act as a most important medium of communication and information sharing. As tweets do not provide sufficient word occurrences i.e. of 140 characters limits, classification methods that use traditional approaches like “Bag-Of-Words” have limitations. The proposed system used an intuitive approach to determine the class labels with the set of features. The System can able to classify incoming tweets mainly into three generic categories: News, Movies and Sports. Since these categories are diverse and cover most of the topics that people usually tweet about .Experimental results using the proposed technique outperform the existing models in terms of accuracy.
