Abstract

Text classification has many applications in various fields; such as news categorization, sentiment analysis, E-mail spam filtering, and others. However, handling textual data is a challenging task owing to the potentially massive number of features (words). The presence of redundant irrelevant features deteriorates the performance of a learning algorithm and makes the process of text classification more complex. This research conducts a comparison study of several filtering-based feature se-lection methods in the context of Arabic text classification. Arabic is a highly complex language syntactically and morphologically which leads to more complicated learning tasks. Proposing a ro-bust classification model is demanding. Remarkably, integrating filtering approaches results in significant improvements in the performance of classification algorithms.
