    Abstract
    The automated categorisation (or classification) of texts into topical categories has a long history, dating back at least to 1960. Until the late '80s, the dominant approach to the problem involved knowledge-engineering automatic categorisers, i.e. manually building a set of rules encoding expert knowledge an how to classify documents. In the '90s, with the booming production and availability of on-line documents, automated text categorisation has witnessed an increased and renewed interest. A newer paradigm based an machine learning has superseded the previous approach. Within this paradigm, a general inductive process automatically builds a classifier by "learning", from a set of previously classified documents, the characteristics of one or more categories; the advantages are a very good effectiveness, a considerable savings in terms of expert manpower, and domain independence. In this tutorial we look at the main approaches that have been taken towards automatic text categorisation within the general machine learning paradigm. Issues of document indexing, classifier construction, and classifier evaluation, will be touched upon.

    Abstract
    Automatic text classification (ATC) is a discipline at the crossroads of information retrieval (IR), machine learning (ML), and computational linguistics (CL), and consists in the realization of text classifiers, i.e. software systems capable of assigning texts to one or more categories, or classes, from a predefined set. Applications range from the automated indexing of scientific articles, to e-mail routing, spam filtering, authorship attribution, and automated survey coding. This article will focus on the ML approach to ATC, whereby a software system (called the learner) automatically builds a classifier for the categories of interest by generalizing from a "training" set of pre-classified texts.

    Abstract
    The automated categorization (or classification) of texts into predefined categories has witnessed a booming interest in the last 10 years, due to the increased availability of documents in digital form and the ensuing need to organize them. In the research community the dominant approach to this problem is based an machine learning techniques: a general inductive process automatically builds a classifier by learning, from a set of preclassified documents, the characteristics of the categories. The advantages of this approach over the knowledge engineering approach (consisting in the manual definition of a classifier by domain experts) are a very good effectiveness, considerable savings in terms of expert labor power, and straightforward portability to different domains. This survey discusses the main approaches to text categorization that fall within the machine learning paradigm. We will discuss in detail issues pertaining to three different problems, namely, document representation, classifier construction, and classifier evaluation.

    Abstract
    In this issue Giorgetti, and Sebastiani suggest that answers to open ended questions in survey instruments can be coded automatically by creating classifiers which learn from training sets of manually coded answers. The manual effort required is only that of classifying a representative set of documents, not creating a dictionary of words that trigger an assignment. They use a naive Bayesian probabilistic learner from Mc Callum's RAINBOW package and the multi-class support vector machine learner from Hsu and Lin's BSVM package, both examples of text categorization techniques. Data from the 1996 General Social Survey by the U.S. National Opinion Research Center provided a set of answers to three questions (previously tested by Viechnicki using a dictionary approach), their associated manually assigned category codes, and a complete set of predefined category codes. The learners were run on three random disjoint subsets of the answer sets to create the classifiers and a remaining set was used as a test set. The dictionary approach is out preformed by 18% for RAINBOW and by 17% for BSVM, while the standard deviation of the results is reduced by 28% and 34% respectively over the dictionary approach.

    Abstract
    Hierarchical text classification (HTC) approaches have recently attracted a lot of interest on the part of researchers in human language technology and machine learning, since they have been shown to bring about equal, if not better, classification accuracy with respect to their "flat" counterparts while allowing exponential time savings at both learning and classification time. A typical component of HTC methods is a "local" policy for selecting negative examples: Given a category c, its negative training examples are by default identified with the training examples that are negative for c and positive for the categories which are siblings of c in the hierarchy. However, this policy has always been taken for granted and never been subjected to careful scrutiny since first proposed 15 years ago. This article proposes a thorough experimental comparison between this policy and three other policies for the selection of negative examples in HTC contexts, one of which (BEST LOCAL (k)) is being proposed for the first time in this article. We compare these policies on the hierarchical versions of three supervised learning algorithms (boosting, support vector machines, and naïve Bayes) by performing experiments on two standard TC datasets, REUTERS-21578 and RCV1-V2.
