Abstract

Term weighting is a vital task in nature language processing domain. It is important means for text semantic representation. As an essential part, the term global weight is also obtained by statistically methods. To achieve relatively logical term global weight for every word in lexicon, this paper compares several popular term weighting methods and proposes a novel combining method of term global weighting through theoretical analysis and experiments. Experimental results revealed that the modified expected cross entropy method yielded better performance than the others in our application.
