Abstract: According to the characteristics of short texts, the authors propose a feature extraction and clustering algorithm named deep denoise sparse auto-encoder. The algorithm takes the advantage of deep learning, transforming those high-dimensional, sparse vectors into new, low-dimensional, essential ones. Firstly, L1 paradigm is introduced to avoid overfitting, and the noise is added to improve the robustness. Experimental result shows that applying extracted text features can significantly improve the effectiveness of clustering. It is a valid method to solve the high-dimensional, sparse problem in the short text vector.

摘要: 针对短文本的特点, 提出一种基于深层噪音自动编码器的特征提取及聚类算法。该算法利用深度学习网络, 将高维、稀疏的短文本空间向量变换到新的低维、本质特征空间。首先在自动编码器的基础上, 引入L1范式惩罚项来避免模型过分拟合, 然后添加噪音项以提高算法的鲁棒性。实验结果表明, 将提取的文本特征应用于短文本聚类, 显著提高了聚类的效果, 有效地解决了短文本空间向量的高维、稀疏问题。
