Abstract

Feature dimensionality has always been one of the key challenges in text mining as it increases complexity when mining documents with high dimensionality. High dimensionality introduces sparseness, noise, and boosts the computational and space complexities. Dimensionality reduction is usually addressed by implementing either feature reduction or feature selection te chniques. In this work, the problem of dimensionality reduction is addressed using singular value decomposition and the results are compared to information gain approach through retaining top-k features. High dimensional clustering is carried by using k -means algorithm with gaussian function. The proposed dimensionality reduction and clustering approaches are compared to conventional approaches and results prove the importance of our approach.
