Title
Automatically Generating a Concept Hierarchy with Graphs
Abstract
We propose a novel graph-based approach for constructing concept hierarchy from a large text corpus. Our algorithm incorporates both statistical co-occurrences and lexical similarity in optimizing the structure of the taxonomy. To automatically generate topic-dependent taxonomies from a large text corpus, we first extracts topical terms and their relationships from the corpus. The algorithm then constructs a weighted graph representing topics and their associations. A graph partitioning algorithm is then used to recursively partition the topic graph into a taxonomy. For evaluation, we apply our approach to articles, primarily computer science, in the CiteSeerX digital library and search engine.
