Abstract

This paper addresses the challenge of content categorization to support document navigation and retrieval. The work is motivated by the need to categorize all legislation of a country, where the existing metadata for each document is not sufficient for effective categorization, as concepts vary considerably among documents, resulting in highly sparse vector-space models. To address this challenge, we survey recent related work and propose a solution that integrates currently dispersed principles in a new unsupervised knowledge discovery process combining principles from topic modeling and formal concept analysis, thus not requiring prior domain knowledge to be applied in large document collections. The results confirm the potential of the proposed approach.
