Abstract

The amount of text data mining in the world and in our life seems ever increasing and there's no end to it. The concept (Text Data Mining) defined as the process of deriving high-quality information from text. It has been applied on different fields including: Pattern mining, opinion mining, and web mining. The concept of Text Data Mining is based around the global Stemming of different forms of Arabic words. Stemming is defined like the method of reducing inflected (or typically derived) words to their word stem, base or ischolar_main kind typically a word kind. We use the REP-Tree to improve text representation. In addition, test new combinations of weighting schemes to be applied on Arabic text data for classification purposes. For processing, WEKA workbench is used. The results in the paper on data set of BBC-Arabic website also show the efficiency and accuracy of REP-TREE in Arabic text classification.
