Assignment Brief:
A dataset of text is provided in the assignment area on Canvas. Analyse this data using the WEKA toolkit and tools introduced within this module, comparing two different forms of preprocessing: For example, you may investigate the impact of using stemming, the effect of reducing the number of features, the impact of term frequency over a simple word count, etc.
Complete the following tasks:
1.Describe which question you will be investigating (e.g. “is stemming beneficial to improving performance?”, “is the reduction of features beneficial to improving performance?”, etc.) and why you think your choice is an interesting question to investigate.
