الملخص الإنجليزي

Text Classification (TC) is the process of classifying documents into a predefined categories based on the document content.

Reducing texts dimensionality affects the performance of classification.

Most of dimensionality reduction techniques ignore the semantic content of texts and focus only on the amount of reduction.

This research investigates the impact of some reduction techniques on Arabic text classification and proposed a new method to tackle this problem by taking into account the sematic relationships that might exist among words and terms such as, Arabic Name Entity (ANE) and synonyms.

In Addition, the proposed method takes into account the linguistic features of the Arabic language.

This method is based on replacing all the ANEs that appears in the text with their reference according the linguistic resource then applying feature clustering (stem synonym grouping method and root grouping method) to merge the similar and related stems without ignoring sematic relationships by building a Semantic Vector Space Model (SVSM).

An in-house collected dataset which contains 332 documents which belong to four different categories: Economy, Politics, Health, and Technology.

The dataset is split into two parts: 600KB (62% of the files of the dataset) for training the system where 150KB for each category and the rest 38% of the dataset files is considered for the testing purpose.

Dimension reduction ratio (DRR) is used to measure the reduction rate.

Precision, recall, f-measure are used to estimate the classification results.

The experiment results conclude that the proposed method not only improve the accuracy of the classification using support vector machine (SVM) classifier but also reduce the feature amount of the text about 3%-5%.
