Most of the existing techniques for document clustering rely on a "bag of words" document representation. Each word in the document is considered as a separate feature, ignoring the word order. We investigate the use of phrases rather than words as document features for the document clustering. We present a phrase grammar extraction technique, and use the extracted phrases as the features in a self-organizing map based document clustering algorithm. We present clustering results using the REUTERS corpus and show an improvement in clustering performance using both entropy and F-measure evaluation measures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
