A hybrid part-of-speech tagger with annotated Kurdish corpus: advancements in POS tagging
2023-10
Digital Scholarship in the Humanities (Issue : 1) (Volume : 9)
With the rapid growth of online content written in the Kurdish language, there is an increasing need to make it machine-readable and processable. Part of speech (POS) tagging is a critical aspect of natural language processing (NLP), playing a significant role in applications such as speech recognition, natural language parsing, information retrieval, and multiword term extraction. This study details the creation of the DASTAN corpus, the first POS-annotated corpus for the Sorani Kurdish dialect. The corpus, containing 74,258 words and thirty-eight tags, employs a hybrid approach utilizing the bigram hidden Markov model in combination with the Kurdish rule-based approach to POS tagging. This approach addresses two key problems that arise with rule-based approaches, namely misclassified words and ambiguity-related unanalyzed words. The proposed approach’s accuracy was assessed by training and testing it on the DASTAN corpus, yielding a 96% accuracy rate. Overall, this study’s findings demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed hybrid approach and its potential to enhance NLP applications for Sorani Kurdish.
An Intelligent and Advance Kurdish Information Retrieval Approach with Ontologies: A Critical Analysis
2023-09
International Journal of Intelligent Systems and Applications in Engineering (Issue : 11) (Volume : 11)
Today, there are numerous methods of finding information online: radio, TV, and the internet all provide answers. However, the Internet stands out as being particularly helpful; users can search by typing in questions related to any subject area they wish. Results appear as links to various documents available on the internet, some of which may not even be relevant due to the vast amount of material. Search engines reliant solely on keywords are incapable of making sense of raw data, making it time-consuming and costly to extract critical pieces from an immense collection of web pages. Due to these deficiencies, several concepts were born, such as the Semantic Web (SW) and ontologies. SW serves as an excellent gateway for retrieving key information through various Information Retrieval (IR) techniques. IR algorithms are too simplistic to extract the semantic content from texts. IR, SW, and ontologies can all be used interchangeably, although all three have some connection. The SW can be achieved through IR, while indexing can lead to its creation on the web. The SW is also created through ontologies. Ontologies can be used together with the intelligent approaches to produce web content, which is then marked up using SW Documents. Ontology is the backbone of any software; therefore, the SW becomes simpler to comprehend. Ontology development is the process of creating and refining an ontology over time. This paper investigates various approaches, methodologies, and datasets used to address challenges in information retrieval, including corpus preparation, annotation techniques, query expansion, semantic reasoning, content alignment, and ontology-based retrieval systems.

A Semantics-Based Clustering Approach for Online Laboratories Using K-Means and HAC Algorithms
2023-01
Mathematics (Issue : 3) (Volume : 11)
Due to the availability of a vast amount of unstructured data in various forms (e.g., the web, social networks, etc.), the clustering of text documents has become increasingly important. Traditional clustering algorithms have not been able to solve this problem because the semantic relationships between words could not accurately represent the meaning of the documents. Thus, semantic document clustering has been extensively utilized to enhance the quality of text clustering. This method is called unsupervised learning and it involves grouping documents based on their meaning, not on common keywords. This paper introduces a new method that groups documents from online laboratory repositories based on the semantic similarity approach. In this work, the dataset is collected first by crawling the short real-time descriptions of the online laboratories’ repositories from the Web. A vector space is created using frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) and clustering is done using the K-Means and Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering (HAC) algorithms with different linkages. Three scenarios are considered: without preprocessing (WoPP); preprocessing with steaming (PPwS); and preprocessing without steaming (PPWoS). Several metrics have been used for evaluating experiments: Silhouette average, purity, V-measure, F1-measure, accuracy score, homogeneity score, completeness and NMI score (consisting of five datasets: online labs, 20 NewsGroups, Txt_sentoken, NLTK_Brown and NLTK_Reuters). Finally, by creating an interactive webpage, the results of the proposed work are contrasted and visualized.

Indonesian Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (Issue : 1) (Volume : 22)
Semantic similarity is the process of identifying relevant data semantically. The traditional way of identifying document similarity is by using synonymous keywords and syntactician. In comparison, semantic similarity is to find similar data using meaning of words and semantics. Clustering is a concept of grouping objects that have the same features and properties as a cluster and separate from those objects that have different features and properties. In semantic document clustering, documents are clustered using semantic similarity techniques with similarity measurements. One of the common techniques to cluster documents is the density-based clustering algorithms using the density of data points as a main strategic to measure the similarity between them. In this paper, a state-of-the-art survey is presented to analyze the density-based algorithms for clustering documents. Furthermore, the similarity and evaluation measures are investigated with the selected algorithms to grasp the common ones. The delivered review revealed that the most used density-based algorithms in document clustering are DBSCAN and DPC. The most effective similarity measurement has been used with densitybased algorithms, specifically DBSCAN and DPC, is Cosine similarity with F-measure for performance and accuracy evaluation.

State of the art document clustering algorithms based on semantic similarity
2020-02
Jurnal Informatika (Issue : 2) (Volume : 14)
The constant success of the Internet made the number of text documents in electronic forms increases hugely. The techniques to group these documents into meaningful clusters are becoming critical missions. The traditional clustering method was based on statistical features, and the clustering was done using a syntactic notion rather than semantically. However, these techniques resulted in un-similar data gathered in the same group due to polysemy and synonymy problems. The important solution to this issue is to document clustering based on semantic similarity, in which the documents are grouped according to the meaning and not keywords. In this research, eighty papers that use semantic similarity in different fields have been reviewed; forty of them that are using semantic similarity based on document clustering in seven recent years have been selected for a deep study, published between the years 2014 to 2020. A comprehensive literature review for all the selected papers is stated. Detailed research and comparison regarding their clustering algorithms, utilized tools, and methods of evaluation are given. This helps in the implementation and evaluation of the clustering of documents. The exposed research is used in the same direction when preparing the proposed research.

2015-03
International Journal of Scientific and Engineering Research (Issue : 3) (Volume : 6)
Indexing data plays a key role in data retrieval and search. New indexing techniques are proposed frequently to improve search performance. Some data clustering methods are previously used for data indexing in data warehouses. In this paper, we discuss general concepts of data indexing, and clustering methods that are based on representatives. Then we present a general theme for indexing using clustering methods. There are two main processing schemes in databases, Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) and Online Analytical Processing (OLAP). The proposed method is specific to stationary data like in OLAP. Having general indexing theme, different clustering methods are compared. Here we studied three representative based clustering methods; standard K-Means, Self Organizing Map (SOM) and Growing Neural Gas (GNG). Our study shows that in this context, GNG out performs K-Means and SOM.
