Czech Text Document Corpus v 2.0

This paper introduces “Czech Text Document Corpus v 2.0”, a collection of text documents for automatic document classification in Czech language. It is composed of 11,955 text documents provided by the Czech News Agency and is freely available for research purposes at http://home.zcu.cz/ ̃pkral/sw/ . This corpus was created in order to facilitate a straightforward comparison of the document classification approaches on Czech data. It is particularly dedicated for evaluation of multi-label document classification approaches, because one document is usually labelled with more than one label. Besides the information about the document classes, the corpus is annotated at morphological layer. This paper further shows the results of selected state-of-the-art methods on this corpus to offer the possibility of an easy comparison with these approaches.
