Title
Contribution to topic identification by using word similarity
Abstract
In this paper, a new topic identification method, WSIM, is investigated. It exploits the similarity between words and topics. This measure is a function of the similarity between words, based on the mutual information. The performance of WSIM is compared to the cache model and to the well- known SVM classifier. Their behavior is also studied in terms of recall and precision, according to the training siz e. Performance of WSIM reaches % correct topic identi- fication. It outperforms SVM ( %) and has a comparable performance with the cache model ( %).
