The traditional text similarity measurement methods based on word frequency vector ignore the semantic relationships between words, which has become the obstacle to text similarity calculation, together with the high-dimensionality and sparsity of document vector. To address the problems, the improved singular value decomposition is used to reduce dimensionality and remove noises of the text representation model. The optimal number of singular values is analyzed and the semantic relevance between words can be calculated in constructed semantic space. An inverted index construction algorithm and the similarity definitions between vectors are proposed to calculate the similarity between two documents on the semantic level. The experimental results on benchmark corpus demonstrate that the proposed method promotes the evaluation metrics of F-measure.

This study proposes an innovative measure for evaluating the performance of text clustering. In using K-means algorithm and Kohonen Networks for text clustering, the number clusters is fixed initially by configuring it as their parameter, while in using single pass algorithm for text clustering, the number of clusters is not predictable. Using labeled documents, the result of text clustering using K-means algorithm or Kohonen Network is able to be evaluated by setting the number of clusters as the number of the given target categories, mapping each cluster to a target category, and using the evaluation measures of text. But in using single pass algorithm, if the number of clusters is different from the number of target categories, such measures are useless for evaluating the result of text clustering. This study proposes an evaluation measure of text clustering based on intra-cluster similarity and inter-cluster similarity, what is called CI (Clustering Index) in this article.

Sentence or text similarity is a measure of the degree of similarity between two sentences. Techniques for measuring text similarity include Jacquard similarity, cosine similarity, Euclidean similarity, and Manhattan similarity. Currently, the cosine similarity technique is most often used, but since this is an analysis according to the occurrence or frequency of a word in a sentence, the analysis on the semantic relationship is insufficient. Therefore, we try to improve the efficiency of analysis on the similarity of sentences by giving relations between words using ontology and including semantic similarity when extracting words that are commonly included in two sentences.

With the gradual increase of interest in plagiarism and intelligent file content search, the demand for similarity measuring between two sentences is increasing. There is a lot of researches for sentence similarity measurement methods in various directions such as n-gram, edit-distance and LSA. However, these methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. In this paper, we propose a new sentence similarity measurement method approaching from another direction. The proposed method uses the set-based POI data search that improves search performance compared to the existing hard matching method when data includes the inverse, omission, insertion and revision of characters. Using this method, we are able to measure the similarity between two sentences more accurately and more quickly. We modified the data loading and text search algorithm of the set-based POI data search. We also added a word operation algorithm and a similarity measure between two sentences expressed as a percentage. From the experimental results, we observe that our sentence similarity measurement method shows better performance than n-gram and the set-based POI data search.

This research proposes the index optimization as a classification task and application of the graph based KNN. We need the index optimization as an important task for maximizing the information retrieval performance. And we try to solve the problems in encoding words into numerical vectors, such as huge dimensionality and sparse distribution, by encoding them into graphs as the alternative representations to numerical vectors. In this research, the index optimization is viewed as a classification task, the similarity measure between graphs is defined, and the KNN is modified into the graph based version based on the similarity measure, and it is applied to the index optimization task. As the benefits from this research, by modifying the KNN so, we expect the improvement of classification performance, more graphical representations of words which is inherent in graphs, the ability to trace more easily results from classifying words. In this research, we will validate empirically the proposed version in optimizing index on the two text collections: NewsPage.com and 20NewsGroups.

In this paper, we propose an efficient document layout analysis algorithm that includes table detection. Typical methods of document layout analysis use the height and gap between words or columns. To correspond to the various styles and sizes of documents, we propose an algorithm that uses the mean value of the distance transform representing thickness and compare with components in the local area. With this algorithm, we combine a table detection algorithm using the same feature as that of the text classifier. Table candidates, separators, and big components are isolated from the image using Connected Component Analysis (CCA) and distance transform. The key idea of text classification is that the characteristics of the text parallel components that have a similar thickness and height. In order to estimate local similarity, we detect a text region using an adaptive searching window size. An improved adaptive run-length smoothing algorithm (ARLSA) was proposed to create the proper boundary of a text zone and non-text zone. Results from experiments on the ICDAR2009 page segmentation competition test set and our dataset demonstrate the superiority of our dataset through f-measure comparison with other algorithms.

The current web is accumulating abundant information. In particular, text based documents are a type used very easily and frequently by human. So, numerous researches are progressed to retrieve the text documents using many methods, such as probability, statistics, vector similarity, Bayesian, and so on. These researches however, could not consider both subject and semantic of documents. So, to overcome the previous problems, we propose the document similarity method for semantic retrieval of document users want. This is the core method of document clustering. This method firstly, expresses a hierarchy semantically of document content ut gives the important hierarchy domain of document to weight. With this, we could measure the similarity between documents using both the domain weight and concepts coincidence in the domain hierarchies.

With the increasing number of social media users worldwide, cases of social media being abused to perpetrate various crimes are increasing. Specifically, drug distribution through social media is emerging as a serious social problem. Using social media channels, the curiosity of teenagers regarding drugs is stimulated through clever marketing. Further, social media easily facilitates drug purchases due to the high accessibility of drug sellers and consumers. Among various social media platforms, we focused on Instagram, which is the most used social media platform by young adults aged 19 to 24 years in South Korea. We collected four types of information, including profile photos, introductions, posts in the form of images, and posts in the form of texts on Instagram; then, we analyzed the similarity among each type of collected information. The profile photos and posts in the form of image were analyzed for similarity based on the SSIM(Structural Simplicity Index Measure), while introductions and posts in the form of text were analyzed for similarity using Jaccard and Cosine similarity techniques. Through the similarity analysis, the similarity among various accounts for each collected information type was measured, and accounts with similarity above the significance level were determined as the same drug sales account. By performing logistic regression analysis on the aforementioned information types, we confirmed that except posts in image form, profile photos, introductions, and posts in the text form were valid information for tracking the same drug sales account.

With the recent rapid development of ICT(Information and Communication Technology) and the popularization of digital devices, the size of the online market continues to grow. As a result, we live in a flood of information. Thus, customers are facing information overload problems that require a lot of time and money to select products. Therefore, a personalized recommender system has become an essential methodology to address such issues. Collaborative Filtering(CF) is the most widely used recommender system. Traditional recommender systems mainly utilize quantitative data such as rating values, resulting in poor recommendation accuracy. Quantitative data cannot fully reflect the user's preference. To solve such a problem, studies that reflect qualitative data, such as review contents, are being actively conducted these days. To quantify user review contents, text mining was used in this study. The general CF consists of the following three steps: user-item matrix generation, Top-N neighborhood group search, and Top-K recommendation list generation. In this study, we propose a recommendation algorithm that applies an extended similarity measure, which utilize quantified review contents in addition to user rating values. After calculating review similarity by applying TF-IDF, Word2Vec, and Doc2Vec techniques to review content, extended similarity is created by combining user rating similarity and quantified review contents. To verify this, we used user ratings and review data from the e-commerce site Amazon's "Health and Personal Care". The proposed recommendation model using extended similarity measure showed superior performance to the traditional recommendation model using only user rating value-based similarity measure. In addition, among the various text mining techniques, the similarity obtained using the TF-IDF technique showed the best performance when used in the neighbor group search and recommendation list generation step.
