Text Classification Example — Weka Code
Processing text data using StringToWordVector filter and a classifier.
// Using GUI:
// 1. Load text dataset
// 2. Go to 'Preprocess' tab
// 3. Apply 'StringToWordVector' filter
// 4. Go to 'Classify' tab and select classifier
// 5. Click 'Start'
// Using Java API:
// StringToWordVector filter = new StringToWordVector();
// filter.setInputFormat(data);
// Instances newData = Filter.useFilter(data, filter);Weka Language Guide
