Classification with LibSVM
Contributor II
Hi
I face a problem with LibSVM operator. My problem in general is the classification of the customers' reviews in the online shop (in german). So, what I did so far:
1. Collected the reviews (200) in the excel sheet.
2. I built a text processing model only for the editing my training data (tokenization, stemming, filtering,etc.) and saved in another excel sheet. So, it is less then 200 reviews and I gave them labels . For the beginning, I want to do 2-class classification (fast delivery and xxx).
3. I built another model, which is for the classification with LibSVM. Here LibSVM wants numeric values, so before this operator I use NominalToNumerical operator.
4. When I apply test data, the result is bad. A lot of examples are misclassified.
I put also breakpoint before LibSVM in order to see what exactly does that NominalToNumerical operator. And it just gives unique numbers to training examples, so it cant work.
Now I'm thinking how to solve this problem or maybe I have to use other operator? By the way, whole data is in german.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards
Armen

In my opinion the problem is in the type convertor.
Please help!

The "Nominal To Numerical" operator is the wrong one. As you already noticed it maps a string to a unique number for this string. Try to learn and validate a model on the same data via a cross-validation first.
Below this posting you can find a process which does a simple crossvalidation. In this example i read a csv-file, but you can use your Excel-operator as well. But please note: The output of the reading operator has to have 2 attributes. One where the unprocessed text is stored (regular attribute with the value type "text") and the other one a binominal label (special attribute "label" with the value type "binominal"). Please use the wizard of the reading operator to output this kind of data. The "Process Documents" operator does the tokenization, stemming, and filtering of stop words and creates an ExampleSet which already has the correct format to learn (i.e. it has numbers). This data will be the input for the cross-validation which output provides you information about how good your learner (for instance the libsvm) performs. If your performance is bad you should play with the parameters of the learner and/or pre-processing steps (the operator inside the "Process Documents" operator) or look at your data. Maybe you do not provide enough data. Or your labeling is not very good. In your data snippet which you have posted i can see that the first examples are talking about fast delivery (in a way) but they are not classified as such.
If your cross-validation indicates a good performance you can apply your model on new data. But i would test my process with a crossvalidation first.
Good luck
Marcin
Thank you for the help!
I will do so and try my best.
Thanks again.

It works normally I think - 92 % accuracy.
Thanks a lot.
