• Abstract: In this paper, we develop a decision support system for the hierarchical text classification. We consider text collections with a fixed hierarchical structure of topics given by experts in the form of a tree. The system sorts the topics by relevance to a given document. The experts choose one of the most relevant topics to finish the classification. We propose a weighted hierarchical similarity function to calculate topic relevance. The function calculates the similarity of a document and a tree branch. The weights in this function determine word importance. We use the entropy of words to estimate the weights. The proposed hierarchical similarity function formulates a joint hierarchical thematic classification probability model of the document topics, parameters, and hyperparameters. The variational Bayesian inference gives a closed-form EM algorithm. The EM algorithm estimates the parameters and calculates the probability of a topic for a given document. Compared to hierarchical multiclass SVM, hierarchical PLSA with adaptive regularization, and hierarchical naive Bayes, the weighted hierarchical similarity function has better improvement in ranking accuracy in an abstract collection of a major conference EURO and a website collection of industrial companies.

  We propose a tree-based method for organizing and representing reference documents at various granular levels. Our method, called ReTreever, jointly learns a routing function per internal node of a binary tree such that query and reference documents are assigned to similar tree branches. Our evaluations show that ReTreever generally preserves full representation accuracy.

  We propose a principled inference framework to improve summarization models on two aspects. Our framework assumes a hierarchical latent structure of a document where the top-level captures the long range dependency. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed framework on a diverse set of summarization datasets.

  Online educational platforms organize academic questions based on a hierarchical learning taxonomy (subject-chapter-topic) This paper formulates the problem as a similarity-based retrieval task where we optimize the semantic relatedness between the taxonomy and the questions. We demonstrate that our method helps to handle the unseen labels and hence can be used for taxonomy tagging in the wild.

  We identify some common pitfalls that may lead practitioners to make misleading conclusions about their methods. We show how the hierarchy's quality can become irrelevant depending on the experimental setup. Our results confirm that datasets with a high number of classes generally present complex structures in how these classes relate to each other.
