Abstract

The explosion of medical literature over the past decade has resulted in efficient and accurate techniques for text categorization to handle huge amount of data. This work combines ensemble learning methods with coupled multi-word embedding techniques to improve cancer text classification. The intricate semantic links present in medical tests are frequently outside the scope of traditional word embedding models, resulting in not ideal categorization results. To address this problem, we employ e continuous bag-of-words and Skip-gram approaches that yield more complete word representations capturing multiple linguistic nuances. Subsequently, such embeddings are passed through LGBM, CatBoost, and NGBoost ensemble learning classifiers to enhance classification accuracy. With 99.868% accuracy rate, LGBM and CatBoost were the most successful ensemble approaches examined. These approaches provide solid foundation for future work on the use of ensemble methods with complex word representations and for advancing the field of medical text classification.
