Feature-enhanced text-inception model for Chinese long text classification

Abstract To solve the problem regarding unbalanced distribution of multi-category Chinese long texts and improve the classification accuracy thereof, a data enhancement method was proposed. Combined with this method, a feature-enhanced text-inception model for Chinese long text classification was proposed. First, the model used a novel text-inception module to extract important shallow features of the text. Meanwhile, the bidirectional gated recurrent unit (Bi-GRU) and the capsule neural network were employed to form a deep feature extraction module to understand the semantic information in the text; K-MaxPooling was then used to reduce the dimension of its shallow and deep features and enhance the overall features. Finally, the Softmax function was used for classification. By comparing the classification effects with a variety of models, the results show that the model can significantly improve the accuracy of long Chinese text classification and has a strong ability to recognize long Chinese text features. The accuracy of the model is 93.97% when applied to an experimental dataset.
