Text Mining Concepts
 85-90 percent of all corporate data is in some kind
of unstructured form (e.g., text)
 Unstructured corporate data is doubling in size
every 18 months
 Tapping into these information sources is not an
option, but a need to stay competitive
 Answer: text mining
 A semi-automated process of extracting knowledge from
unstructured data sources
 a.k.a. text data mining or knowledge discovery in textual
databases
Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 7
Data Mining versus Text Mining
 Both seek for novel and useful patterns
 Both are semi-automated processes
 Difference is the nature of the data:
 Structured versus unstructured data
 Structured data: in databases
 Unstructured data: Word documents, PDF files,
text excerpts, XML files, and so on
 Text mining – first, impose structure to the
data, then mine the structured data.
Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 8
Text Mining Concepts
 Benefits of text mining are obvious, especially in
text-rich data environments
 e.g., law (court orders), academic research (research
articles), finance (quarterly reports), medicine (discharge
summaries), biology (molecular interactions), technology
(patent files), marketing (customer comments), etc.
 Electronic communication records (e.g., Email)
 Spam filtering
 Email prioritization and categorization
 Automatic response generation

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 9


Text Mining Application Area
 Information extraction
 Topic tracking
 Summarization
 Categorization
 Clustering
 Concept linking
 Question answering

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 10


Text Mining Terminology
 Unstructured or semi-structured data
 Corpus (and corpora)
 Terms
 Concepts
 Stemming
 Stop words (and include words)
 Synonyms (and polysemes)
 Tokenizing
Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 11
Text Mining Terminology
 Term dictionary
 Word frequency
 Part-of-speech tagging
 Morphology
 Term-by-document matrix
 Occurrence matrix
 Singular value decomposition

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 12
Application Case 5.2
Text Mining for Patent Analysis
 What is a patent?
 “exclusive rights granted by a country to an
inventor for a limited period of time in
exchange for a disclosure of an invention”
 How do we do patent analysis (PA)?
 Why do we need to do PA?
 What are the benefits?
 What are the challenges?
 How does text mining help in PA?
Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 13
Natural Language Processing (NLP)
 Structuring a collection of text
 Old approach: bag-of-words
 New approach: natural language processing
 NLP is …
 a very important concept in text mining
 a subfield of artificial intelligence and computational
linguistics
 the studies of "understanding" the natural human language
 Syntax versus semantics-based text mining

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 14


Natural Language Processing (NLP)
 What is “Understanding”?
 Human understands, what about computers?
 Natural language is vague, context driven
 True understanding requires extensive
knowledge of a topic

 Can/will computers ever understand natural


language the same/accurate way we do?

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 15


Natural Language Processing (NLP)
 Challenges in NLP
 Part-of-speech tagging
 Text segmentation
 Word sense disambiguation

 to have algorithms that are capable of automatically
reading and obtaining knowledge from text
Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 16
Natural Language Processing (NLP)
 WordNet
 A laboriously hand-coded database of English words,
their definitions, sets of synonyms, and various semantic
relations between synonym sets.
 A major resource for NLP.
 Need automation to be completed.
 Sentiment Analysis
 A technique used to detect favorable and unfavorable
opinions toward specific products and services
 SentiWordNet

The three-step text mining process

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 26


Text Mining Process
 Step 1: Establish the corpus
 Collect all relevant unstructured data
(e.g., textual documents, XML files, emails,
Web pages, short notes, voice recordings…)
 Digitize, standardize the collection
(e.g., all in ASCII text files)
 Place the collection in a common place
(e.g., in a flat file, or in a directory as
separate files)

Text Mining Process
 Step 2: Create the Term-by-Document
Matrix (TDM)
 Should all terms be included?
 Stop words, include words
 Synonyms, homonyms
 Stemming
 What is the best representation of the indices
(values in cells)?
 Row counts; binary frequencies; log frequencies;
 Inverse document frequency

Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 29


Text Mining Process
 Step 2: Create the Term-by-Document
Matrix (TDM)
 TDM is a sparse matrix. How can we reduce the
dimensionality of the TDM?
 Manual - a domain expert goes through it
 Eliminate terms with very few occurrences in very
few documents (?)
 Transform the matrix using singular value
decomposition (SVD)
 SVD is similar to principle component analysis
Copyright © 2014 Pearson Education Limited Slide 5- 30
Text Mining Process
 Step 3: Extract patterns/knowledge
 Classification (text categorization)
 Clustering (natural groupings of text)
 Improve search recall
 Improve search precision
 Scatter/gather
 Query-specific clustering
 Association
 Trend Analysis (…)
