Subject Specific Stream Classification Preprocessing Algorithm for Twitter Data Stream

Abstract: Micro-blogging service Twitter is a lucrative source for data mining applications on global sentiment. But due to the omnifariousness of the subjects mentioned in each data item; it is inefficient to run a data mining algorithm on the raw data. This paper discusses an algorithm to accurately classify the entire stream in to a given number of mutually exclusive collectively exhaustive streams upon each of which the data mining algorithm can be run separately yielding more relevant results with a high efficiency.
