Tuning the Turkish Text Classification Process Using Supervised Machine Learning-based Algorithms
Ömer Köksal · 2020
Text classification is the process of determining categories or tags of a document depending on its content. Although it is a well-known process, it has many steps that require tuning to have better mathematical models. In this context, as an agglutinative language, especially the Turkish text classification process requires some extra tuning and preprocessing steps. This paper proposes a methodology and expresses key-points for tuning the Turkish text classification process using supervised machine learning algorithms. For this purpose, we perform intensive experiments on an open Turkish news dataset. Our study shows that our methodology improves categorization results based on F1-score.
