dc.description.abstractData mining is the process of analyzing data from different perspectives and summarizing it into useful information. This dissertation entitled ―News Clustering System based on Text Mining” is one of the implementation of Data Mining in which the similar type articles of different Newspapers are grouped together which is in English language. In this work, documents from different newspapers’ sites are retrieved i.e. Information Extraction (IE) using crawler then document preprocessing is applied. Parser parses the data into article heading and corresponding links, then the headings are split into individual terms and a list of distinct terms are maintained. Then the porter steaming algorithm is applied over the distinct terms collection. Steaming minimizes the vocabulary size (i.e. no. of terms will be minimized). TF-IDF of individual heading is calculated. This process represents individual content and heading in to n-dimensional vector space (n is the number of distinct terms in the article). Finally, K-means algorithm is implemented to group the news. The Efficiency of K-means Clustering Algorithm has been analyzed for different values of initial number of cluster seeds (K) and different iterations (I). The result analysis is on seven days news data. The result obtained by the experiment shows that the result is efficient with the initial clusters seed 12 (K=12), Iterations to maintain the constant cluster centers in K-means clustering depends upon the number of data sets and running time is also directly proportional to the number of iterations and number of initial clusters seeds.
