## TF-IDF (Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency)
|
||||
|
||||
### Introduction
|
||||
TF-IDF stands for Term Frequency Inverse Document Frequency. It is a statistical measure used to evaluate the importance of a word in a document relative to a collection of documents (corpus). It is often used in information retrieval and text mining to identify the most significant words within a document.
|
||||
TF-IDF, which stands for Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency, is a powerful statistical measure used in the fields of information retrieval and text mining. It helps determine the significance of a word within a single document while also considering its rarity across a collection of documents, known as a corpus. By balancing these two aspects, TF-IDF effectively highlights the most important terms that characterize the content of a document.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Terminologies
|
||||
* Term Frequency (tf):It is a scoring of the frequency of word in the current document. In document d, the frequency represents the number of instances of a given word t. Therefore, we can see that it becomes more relevant when a word appears in the text, which is rational. Since the ordering of terms is not significant, we can use a vector to describe the text in the bag of term models. For each specific term in the paper, there is an entry with the value being the term frequency.
|
||||
* Term Frequency (tf):Term Frequency (TF) measures how frequently a term appears in a document. This measure helps understand the prominence of a word within a given document. The basic idea is that the more a word appears in a document, the more important it might be considered. However, this importance is normalized by the total number of words in the document to ensure fair comparison across documents of varying lengths.
|
||||
Mathematically, the term frequency tf(t,d) of term t in document d is given by:
|
||||
$$tf(t,d) = N(t) / t(d)$$
|
||||
where,
|
||||
N(t) = Number of times term t appears in document d, t(d) = Total number of terms in document d.
|
||||
N(t) = Number of times term t appears in document d &
|
||||
t(d) = Total number of terms in document d.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
* Inverse Document Frequency (idf):It is a scoring of how rare the word is across documents. Mainly, it tests how relevant the word is. The key aim of the search is to locate the appropriate records that fit the demand. Since tf considers all terms equally significant, it is therefore not only possible to use the term frequencies to measure the weight of the term in the paper. For finding idf we first need to find df.
|
||||
* Inverse Document Frequency (idf):Inverse Document Frequency (IDF) measures the rarity of a term across the entire corpus. While TF highlights the local importance of a term, IDF adjusts this importance by considering the term's distribution across all documents. The core idea is that if a term appears in many documents, it might not be particularly useful for distinguishing one document from another. Conversely, terms that are rare across documents are often more discriminative.
|
||||
The IDF for a term t is calculated as:
|
||||
$$idf(t) = log(N/ df(t))$$
|
||||
where,
|
||||
df(t) = Number of documents containing term t, N = Total number of documents
|
||||
df(t) = Number of documents containing term t &
|
||||
N = Total number of documents
|
||||
|
||||
* TF-IDF: The product of TF and IDF, providing a balanced measure that accounts for both the frequency of terms in a document and their rarity across the corpus. The tf-idf weight consists of two terms :- Normalized Term Frequency (tf) and Inverse Document Frequency (idf)
|
||||
$$TF-IDF(t,d,D)=tf(t,d)×idf(t,D)$$
|
||||
* TF-IDF: TF-IDF is the product of TF and IDF, providing a comprehensive measure that reflects both the frequency of a term in a document and its rarity across the corpus. This combination allows TF-IDF to identify terms that are both significant within a specific document and distinctive across the entire collection of documents.
|
||||
The TF-IDF score for a term t in document d within a corpus D is computed as:
|
||||
$$TF-IDF(t,d,D)=TF(t,d)×IDF(t,D)$$
|
||||
|
||||
### Applications of TF-IDF
|
||||
TF-IDF is widely used in various applications in the different fields as follows:
|
||||
* Information Retrieval
|
||||
* Content Tagging
|
||||
* Text Mining and Analysis
|
||||
* Text Similarity Measurement

||||
* Natural Language Processing (NLP)
|
||||
* Recommendation Systems
|
||||
TF-IDF is widely used in various applications across different fields, including:
|
||||
* Information Retrieval: Enhancing search engines to return more relevant results.
|
||||
* Content Tagging: Automatically tagging documents with relevant keywords.
|
||||
* Text Mining and Analysis: Identifying important words in large text corpora.
|
||||
* Text Similarity Measurement: Comparing documents to find similarities.
|
||||
* Document Clustering and Classification: Grouping documents into clusters and classifying them based on their content.
|
||||
* Natural Language Processing (NLP): Improving various NLP tasks like sentiment analysis, topic modeling, etc.
|
||||
