<![CDATA[Recently, a probabilistic topic modelling approach, latent dirichlet allocation (LDA), has been extensively applied in the arena of document classification. However, classical LDA is an unsupervised algorithm implemented using a fixed number of topics without prior domain knowledge and generates different outcomes with the change in the order of documents. This article presents a comprehensive framework to evade the order effect and unsupervised probabilistic nature. First, the framework creates the vocabulary specific to the category using a weight-dependent model that extracts distinctive features suitable for supervised classification. Then, it transforms a classified cluster of documents from the domain corpus to the relevant topic making it more robust to noise. The framework was tested on a comprehensive collection of benchmark news datasets that vary in sample size, class characteristics, and classification tasks. In contrast to the conventional classification methods, the proposed framework achieved 95.56% and 95.23% accuracy when applied on two datasets, indicating that the proposed algorithm has a better classification capability. Furthermore, the topics extracted from the classified clusters are highly relevant to domain categories.]]>
