Abstract

An adaptive variant of the principal direction divisive partitioning method which allows the classification tree to be adjusted as new documents are added to the data set, is presented. The effectiveness of the extension is illustrated with a few examples, The method meets the demands of a client-side Web agent such as WebACE in which a classification structure must be dynamically updated as the user browses through a large collection of documents such as the World Wide Web.
