A Systematic study of Text Mining Techniques

Abstract

Text mining is a new and exciting research area that tries to solve the information overload problem by using techniques from machine learning, natural language processing (NLP), data mining, information retrieval (IR), and knowledge management. Text mining involves the pre-processing of document collections such as information extraction, term extraction, text categorization, and storage of intermediate representations. The techniques that are used to analyse these intermediate representations such as clustering, distribution analysis, association rules and visualisation of the results.
