Abstract When n-grams are considered as text classification features, the classification accuracy is decreased. The redundancy and relevance between words are ignored while n-grams are weighted. Thus, n-grams features weighting algorithm based on relevance and semantic is proposed. To decrease the internal redundancy, feature reduction is conducted to n-grams during text preprocessing. Then, n-grams are weighted according to the relevance of words and classes in n-grams and the semantic similarity of n-grams and testing dataset. The experimental results on Sougo Chinese news corpse and NetEase text corpse show that the proposed algorithm can select n-grams features of high relevance and low redundancy, and reduce the sparse data while quantifying the testing dataset.
