Abstract

A resilient classifier for using with a rule-based system is provided. A system for classifying data for a rule-based system, may include: a system(s) for generating two training data sets, one data set is generated from input data while the second data set is generated from disturbed data; a system for merging the two training data sets; and a system for training a data classifier with the merged training data sets. As a result, the classification of data becomes more accurate, including when disturbed data is encountered.

Claims (62)

1. A method for classifying data for a rule-based system, comprising:

generating a first training data set from input data;

generating a second training data set from disturbed data;

merging the first training data set and the second training data set; and

training a data classifier with the merged first training data set and second training data set.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a data set; and

using the trained data classifier to classify the received data set.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the data comprises text data.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein generating the second data set comprises adding noise or a disturbance to the first data set.

5. The method of claim 4 , the adding comprising at least one of:

replacing a term in the first data set with a synonym;

replacing a term in the first data set with a misspelled term; and

changing a voice of a phrase in the first data set.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the data classifier is an electronic mail classifier.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the generating the first training data set from input data is done with a rule-based system.

8. A system for classifying data for a rule-based system, comprising:

a system for generating a first training data set from input data;

a system for generating a second training data set from disturbed data;

a system for merging the first training data set and the second training data set; and

a system for training a data classifier with the merged first training data set and second training data set.

9. The system of claim 8 , further comprising:

a system for receiving a data set; and

a system for using the trained data classifier to classify the received data set.

10. The system of claim 8 wherein the data comprises text data.

11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the system for generating the second data set comprises a system for adding noise or a disturbance to the first data set.

12. The system of claim 11 , the system for adding comprising at least one of:

a system for replacing a term in the first data set with a synonym;

a system for replacing a term in the first data set with a misspelled term; and

a system for changing a voice of a phrase in the first data set.

13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the data classifier is an electronic mail classifier.

14. The system of claim 8 , wherein the system for generating the first training data set from input data comprises a rule-based system.

15. A computer program comprising program code stored on a computer-readable medium, which when executed, enables a computer system to implement a method for classifying data for a rule-based system, the method comprising:

generating a first training data set from input data;

generating a second training data set from disturbed data;

merging the first training data set and the second training data set; and

training a data classifier with the merged first training data set and second training data set.

16. The computer program of claim 15 , the method further comprising:

receiving a data set; and

using the trained data classifier to classify the received data set.

17. The computer program of claim 15 , wherein the data comprises text data.

18. The computer program of claim 15 , wherein the generating the second data set comprises adding noise or a disturbance to the first data set.

19. The computer program of claim 18 , the adding comprising at least one of:

replacing a term in the first data set with a synonym;

replacing a term in the first data set with a misspelled term; and

changing a voice of a phrase in the first data set.

20. The computer program of claim 15 , wherein the data classifier is an electronic mail classifier.

21. The computer program of claim 15 , wherein the generating the first training data set from input data is done with a rule-based system.

22. A data processing system for classifying data for a rule-based system, comprising:

a processing unit;

a bus coupled to the processing unit; and

a memory medium coupled to the bus comprising program code, which when executed by the processing unit causes the data processing system to:

generate a first training data set from input data;

generate a second training data set from disturbed data;

merge the first training data set and the second training data set; and

train a data classifier with the merged first training data set and second training data set.

23. A method of generating a system for classifying data for a rule-based system, the method comprising:

providing a computer system operable to:

generate a first training data set from input data;

generate a second training data set from disturbed data;

merge the first training data set and the second training data set; and

train a data classifier with the merged first training data set and second training data set.
