In this article, features are selected using feature clustering and ranking of features for imbalanced text data. Initially the text documents are represented in lower dimension using the term class relevance (TCR) method. The class wise clustering is recommended to balance the documents in each class. Subsequently, the clusters are treated as classes and the documents of each cluster are represented in the lower dimensional form using the TCR again. The features are clustered and for each feature cluster the cluster representative is selected and these representatives are used as selected features of the documents. Hence, this proposed model reduces the dimension to a smaller number of features. For selecting the cluster representative, four feature evaluation methods are used and classification is done by using SVM classifier. The performance of the method is compared with the global feature ranking method. The experiment is conducted on two benchmark datasets the Reuters-21578 and the TDT2 dataset. The experimental results show that this method performs well when compared to the other existing works.<\/p>","DOI":"10.4018\/ijcvip.2020010104","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,12,23]],"date-time":"2019-12-23T10:57:56Z","timestamp":1577098676000},"page":"67-85","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Effective Technique to Reduce the Dimension of Text Data"],"prefix":"10.4018","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"D.S.","family":"Guru","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Studies in Computer Science, University of Mysore, Mysore, India"}]},{"given":"K.","family":"Swarnalatha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"MIT Thandavapura, India"}]},{"ORCID":"http:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8558-9621","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"N.
