The effect of term weighting measures on feature selection

Feature selection is an important stage in any text mining classification techniques. In this dissertation, we study and analyze Categorical Term Descriptor (CTD) (Bong, C.H., 2001) feature selection method. which gives comparative accuracy results compared to other well-known feature selection meth...
