News Aggregation: Text Classification

Text Classification for News Aggregation

Project Overview:

Objective

The “Text Classification for News Aggregation” project aims to create a dataset for training machine learning models to accurately classify news articles into various categories or topics. This dataset will support news aggregators, content recommendation systems, and information retrieval applications.

Scope

This project involves collecting news articles from various sources, such as news websites, blogs, and RSS feeds, and annotating them with relevant category or topic labels to facilitate efficient news aggregation and content organization.

Quality Assurance

Annotation Verification: Implement a validation process involving subject matter experts or journalists to review and verify the accuracy of category or topic labels.
Data Quality Control: Ensure the removal of articles with poor quality content, spam, or irrelevant information.
Data Security: Protect sensitive information and adhere to copyright and licensing regulations.

QA Metrics:

  • Annotation Validation Cases: 5,000 (10% of total)
  • Data Cleansing: Remove low-quality or irrelevant articles

Conclusion

The “Text Classification for News Aggregation” dataset is a valuable resource for news aggregators, content recommendation systems, and information retrieval applications. With accurately annotated news articles and comprehensive metadata, this dataset empowers the development of advanced text classification models that can automatically categorize and organize news content for users. It contributes to improved news aggregation, personalized content recommendations, and efficient access to information across a wide range of topics and sources.
