Improving Quality of Email Categorization with Tournament Methods
نویسندگان
چکیده
The tournament text classification methods are proposed in this article to perform the task of email categorization, in which the essence is to break down the multi-class categorization process into a set of binary classification tasks. We implement the methods of elimination and Round Robin tournament to classify emails within 15 folders. Substantial experiments are conducted to compare the effectiveness and robustness of the tournament methods against the n-way classification method and the voting method. The experimental results show that the tournament methods outperform the n-way method by 11.7% and the voting method by 4.1% regarding precision, and the Round Robin performs slightly better than the Elimination tournament on average.

Email Categorization with Tournament Methods
We propose to deploy the tournament methods to perform the task of email categorization. The multi-class categorization process is thus broken down into a set of binary classification tasks. We implement the elimination tournament and Round Robin tournament and apply them to classify emails within 15 folders. We conduct substantial experiments to compare the effectiveness and robustness of the ...
متن کاملImproving the Operation of Text Categorization Systems with Selecting Proper Features Based on PSO-LA
With the explosive growth in amount of information, it is highly required to utilize tools and methods in order to search, filter and manage resources. One of the major problems in text classification relates to the high dimensional feature spaces. Therefore, the main goal of text classification is to reduce the dimensionality of features space. There are many feature selection methods. However...

متن کاملChoosing from a large tournament
A tournament can be viewed as a majority preference relation without ties on a set of alternatives. In this way, voting rules based on majority comparisons are equivalent to methods of choosing from a tournament. We consider the size of several of these tournament solutions in tournaments with a large but finite number of alternatives. Our main result is that with probability approaching one, t...
متن کاملEfficiency enhancement of estimation of distribution algorithms by a compressed tournament selection
Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDA) are population-based meta-heuristics that use probabilistic models to describe the relationships between variables of a problem. From these models, new solutions can be sampled without disruption of Building Blocks, leading to a more effective search. The key aspect of EDAs is the model-building step and better models should enable a better exploratio...
