Effective XML classification using content and structural information via rule learning

We propose a new approach to XML classification, that uses a particular rule-learning technique for the induction of interpretable classification models. These separate the individual classes of XML documents by looking at the presence within the XML documents themselves of certain features, that provide information on their content and structure. The devised approach induces classifiers with outperforming effectiveness in comparison to several established competitors. © 2011 IEEE.
