Abstract: Incremental clustering algorithms for news comments can effectively discover the views of netizens on the news event, which is of great significance in the field of public opinion analysis. The traditional algorithms for incremental clustering short texts are sensitive to the input sequence, this paper proposes an improved UCSP (uncertain cyclic Single-Pass) incremental clustering algorithm. In the process of clustering, the traditional vector space model for short texts is lack of semantic information, and has the disadvantage of sparse feature. Combined with neural network vector model, this paper constructs a new representation model for short texts based on compositional semantic features. Compared with the traditional texts representation models and clustering algorithms on 5 Tencent news comments data sets, the results show that the proposed algorithm can more effectively improve the quality of clustering.

摘要: 对新闻评论进行增量聚类可以有效地发现网民对新闻事件的观点,在舆情分析领域具有十分重要的意义。针对传统的增量聚类算法存在对文本输入顺序敏感的缺点,提出了一种基于待定循环策略的增量聚类算法(uncertain cyclic Single-Pass,UCSP)。在聚类过程中,针对传统的短文本向量空间模型语义信息匮乏、特征项稀疏的问题,结合神经网络训练的词向量模型,构建了一种基于多特征组合的短文本表示模型。在爬取的5个腾讯新闻评论数据集进行实验,并与传统的文本表示模型和聚类算法进行对比分析,结果表明,所提算法可以有效地提高聚类质量。
