Exploratory Analysis of Highly Heterogeneous Document Collections
We present an effective multifaceted system for exploratory analysis of
highly heterogeneous document collections. Our system is based on intelligently
tagging individual documents in a purely automated fashion and exploiting these
tags in a powerful faceted browsing framework. Tagging strategies employed
include both unsupervised and supervised approaches based on machine learning
and natural language processing. As one of our key tagging strategies, we
introduce the KERA algorithm (Keyword Extraction for Reports and Articles).
KERA extracts topic-representative terms from individual documents in a purely
unsupervised fashion and is revealed to be significantly more effective than
state-of-the-art methods. Finally, we evaluate our system in its ability to
help users locate documents pertaining to military critical technologies buried
deep in a large heterogeneous sea of information.Comment: 9 pages; KDD 2013: 19th ACM SIGKDD Conference on Knowledge Discovery
