MLTag

The module suggests tags to the user depending upon the content of the post using Learning Algorithms. Based on an algorithm and a ranking mechanism the user will be provided with a list of tags from which he can select those that best describe the article and also train a user-content learning model in the background. The model trains on the user's past tagging patterns and posts on the website which are then used to propose tags.

The users get 2 sets of Tags to choose from-
1.Implicit Tags- which are derived only from the current content and ranked according to their chi square value.
2.Learned Tags- derived using the Trained Model and the learning algorithm.

Research Background

Currently the Algorithms in place are the "Word Co-occurrence Statistical Algorithm" proposed by Y. Matsuo and M. Ishizuka - http://bit.ly/N9xyn2 and a "Frequency Based Algorithm." The co-occurrence algorithm has been extended to incorporate learning as well.

Advantages

• MLTag is not dependent upon any External Services as it has in-built NLP Libraries for it's use.
• Users have the flexibility to enable MLTag for specific content types, specify fields from which content will be captured and passed to the tagging / learning algorithm, specify taxonomies associated etc.
• Users also have the flexibility of adding custom high-priority terms to the Trained Model by choosing appropriate vocabularies from the Taxonomy Module.

Currently MLTag is for Drupal version 7.x
