    Textnettopics-SFTS-SBTS Textnettopics Scoring Approaches Based Sequential Forward and Backward
    (Springer International Publishing AG, 2024) Voskergian, Daniel; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu; Yousef, Malik
    TextNetTopics is a text classification-based topic modeling approach that performs topic selection rather than word selection to train a machine learning algorithm. However, one main limitation of TextNetTopics is that its scoring component (the S component) assesses each topic independently and ranks them accordingly, neglecting the potential relationship between topics. In order to address this limitation and improve the classification performance, this study introduces an enhancement to TextNetTopics. TextNetTopics-SFTS-SBTS integrates two novel scoring approaches: Sequential Forward Topic Scoring (SFTS) and Sequential Backward Topic Scoring (SBTS), which consider topic interactions by assessing sets of topics simultaneously. This integration aims to streamline the topic selection process and enhance classifier efficiency for text classification. The results obtained across three datasets offer valuable insights into the context-dependent effectiveness of the new scoring mechanisms across diverse datasets and varying numbers of topics involved in the analysis.

    TextNetTopics+: Enhancing Text Classification Through Classifier Diversity and Model Ensembling
    (Springer International Publishing AG, 2025) Voskergian, Daniel; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu; Yousef, Malik
    TextNetTopics is an innovative text classification framework that integrates topic modeling with feature selection to improve model accuracy and interpretability. Unlike traditional methods that rely on individual words, TextNetTopics selects cohesive topics extracted via Latent Dirichlet Allocation as features for document representation, effectively reducing dimensionality while preserving the semantic structure of the text. This study evaluates the performance of TextNetTopics utilizing multiple machine learning algorithms in the M (Modeling) component, including Random Forest, Support Vector Machine, Gradient Boosting, eXtreme Gradient Boosting, and Logistic Regression. To further enhance classification performance, we introduce TextNetTopics+, an ensemblebased extension that leverages both hard voting and soft voting mechanisms to combine the strengths of multiple classifiers. Comprehensive experiments on the LitCovid and WOS datasets demonstrate that ensemble learning in TextNetTopics + significantly outperforms individual classifiers in TextNetTopics, confirming its effectiveness in improving model robustness and generalization.

    Semant - Feature Group Selection Utilizing Fasttext-Based Semantic Word Grouping, Scoring, and Modeling Approach for Text Classification
    (Springer International Publishing AG, 2024) Voskergian, Daniel; Bakir-Gungor, Burcu; Yousef, Malik
    Text classification presents a challenge due to its high-dimensional feature space. As such, devising an effective feature selection scheme is essential. In this study, we present SEMANT, a novel hybrid filter-wrapper feature selection method that utilizes filter-based Chi-Square and the wrapper-based G-S-M approach. SEMANT incorporates fastText neural word embedding similarities to promote greater semantic inclusion in the selection of features for text classification tasks. The performance of the proposed method was investigated on the WOS-5736 and LitCovid datasets and compared with TextNetTopics, a topic modeling-based topic selection algorithm for text classification. Experimental results confirm that the proposed approach outperforms its alternative.
