Abstract: Profile based methods have been successfully used for the classification of unstructured texts. This paper presents a profile based method for Wikipedia XML document classification. We have used profiles built using negative category information. Our approach exploits the structure of Wikipedia documents to build profiles. Two class profiles are built; one based on the whole content and the other based on the initial description of the Wikipedia documents. In addition, we have also explored the option of using the terms in the section and subsection titles. The effectiveness of cosine and fractional similarity measures in classifying XML documents is compared. The importance of combining two profile based classifiers is experimentally shown to have worked better than individual classifiers.
