SVM categorizer: a generic categorization tool using support vector machines

Supervised text categorisation is a significant tool considering the vast amount of structured, unstruc-tured, or semi-structured texts that are available from internal or external enterprise resources. The goal of supervised text categorisation is to assign text documents to finite pre-specified categories in order to extract and automatically organise information coming from these resources. This paper pro-poses the implementation of a generic application – SVM Categorizer using the Support Vector Ma-chines algorithm with an innovative statistical adjustment that improves its performance. The algo-rithm is able to learn from a pre-categorised document corpus and it is tested on another uncatego-rized one based on a business intelligence case study. This paper discusses the requirements, design and implementation and describes every aspect of the application that will be developed. The final output of the SVM Categorizer is evaluated using commonly accepted metrics so as to measure its per-formance and contrast it with other classification tools

On Measuring Non-Recursive Trade-Offs

We investigate the phenomenon of non-recursive trade-offs between descriptional systems in an abstract fashion. We aim at categorizing non-recursive trade-offs by bounds on their growth rate, and show how to deduce such bounds in general. We also identify criteria which, in the spirit of abstract language theory, allow us to deduce non-recursive tradeoffs from effective closure properties of language families on the one hand, and differences in the decidability status of basic decision problems on the other. We develop a qualitative classification of non-recursive trade-offs in order to obtain a better understanding of this very fundamental behaviour of descriptional systems

Origins of anomalous mixed-alkali effects in ion-exchanged glasses

Ion transport properties in ion-exchanged glasses are re-examined by a.c. impedance and infrared spectroscopies. In typical soda - lime-silica (float) glass it is shown that when Na+ ions are replaced by K+ ions, the region of highest resistivity resides in the surface, confirming the earlier result of Tomandl and Schaeffer. The existence of this anomalous impedance is correlated with cationinduced relaxations of the network (CIRON). This process enables the glass to accommodate larger ions at the expense of empty Κ sites (which in melt-grown glasses provide the stepping stones for ion migration). As a consequence of the structural relaxations, the compressive stresses stored within the surface of the glass may be smaller than expected, even when ion exchange occurs far below Tg and the effects of viscous flow can be neglected
