Raspberry Pi 3 Cookbook for Python Programmers

Dividing Text Data and Building Text Classifiers

This chapter presents the following recipes:

  • Building a text classifier
  • Preprocessing data using tokenization
  • Stemming text data
  • Dividing text using chunking
  • Building a bag-of-words model
  • Applications of text classifiers

Introduction

This chapter presents recipes to build text classifiers. This includes extracting vital features from the database, training, testing, and validating the text classifier. Initially, a text classifier is trained using commonly used words. Later, the trained text classifier is used for prediction. Building a text classifier includes preprocessing the data using tokenization, stemming text data, dividing text using chunking, and building a bag-of-words model.

Building a text classifier

Classifier units are normally considered to separate a database into various classes. The Naive Bayes classifier scheme is widely considered in literature to segregate the texts based on the trained model. This section of the chapter initially considers a text database with keywords; feature extraction extracts the key phrases from the text and trains the classifier system. Then, term frequency-inverse document frequency (tf-idf) transformation is implemented to specify the importance of the word. Finally, the output is predicted and printed using the classifier system.

How to do it...

  1. Include the following lines in a new Python file to add datasets:
from sklearn.datasets import fetch_20newsgroups...

Pre-processing data using tokenization

The pre-processing of data involves converting the existing text into acceptable information for the learning algorithm.

Tokenization is the process of dividing text into a set of meaningful pieces. These pieces are called tokens.

How to do it...

  1. Introduce sentence tokenization:
from nltk.tokenize import sent_tokenize
  1. Form a new text tokenizer:
tokenize_list_sent = sent_tokenize(text)
print "nSentence tokenizer:" print tokenize_list_sent
  1. Form a new word tokenizer:
from nltk.tokenize import word_tokenize 
print "nWord tokenizer:" 
print word_tokenize(text) 
  1. Introduce a new WordPunct tokenizer:
from nltk.tokenize import WordPunctTokenizer 
word_punct_tokenizer...

Stemming text data

The stemming procedure involves creating a suitable word with reduced letters for the words of the tokenizer.

How to do it...

  1. Initialize the stemming process with a new Python file:
from nltk.stem.porter import PorterStemmer 
from nltk.stem.lancaster import LancasterStemmer 
from nltk.stem.snowball import SnowballStemmer 
  1. Let's describe some words to consider, as follows:
words = ['ability', 'baby', 'college', 'playing', 'is', 'dream', 'election', 'beaches', 'image', 'group', 'happy'] 
  1. Identify a group of stemmers to be used:
stemmers = ['PORTER', 'LANCASTER', &apos...

Dividing text using chunking

The chunking procedure can be used to divide the large text into small, meaningful words.

How to do it...

  1. Develop and import the following packages using Python:
import numpy as np 
from nltk.corpus import brown 
  1. Describe a function that divides text into chunks:
# Split a text into chunks 
def splitter(content, num_of_words): 
   words = content.split(' ') 
   result = [] 
  1. Initialize the following programming lines to get the assigned variables:
   current_count = 0 
   current_words = []
  1. Start the iteration using words:
   for word in words: 
     current_words.append(word) 
     current_count += 1 
  1. After getting the essential amount of words, reorganize the variables:
  ...

Building a bag-of-words model

When working with text documents that include large words, we need to switch them to several types of arithmetic depictions. We need to formulate them to be suitable for machine learning algorithms. These algorithms require arithmetical information so that they can examine the data and provide significant details. The bag-of-words procedure helps us to achieve this. Bag-of-words creates a text model that discovers vocabulary using all the words in the document. Later, it creates the models for every text by constructing a histogram of all the words in the text.

How to do it...

  1. Initialize a new Python file by importing the following file:
import numpy as np 
from nltk.corpus import brown 
from...

Applications of text classifiers

Text classifiers are used to analyze customer sentiments, in product reviews, when searching queries on the internet, in social tags, to predict the novelty of research articles, and so on.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team. 

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Yes, all Early Access content is fully available through your subscription. You will need to have a paid for or active trial subscription in order to access all titles.

How is Early Access delivered? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is currently only available as a PDF or through our online reader. As we make changes or add new chapters, the files in your Packt account will be updated so you can download them again or view them online immediately.

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
