Prepare data for text classification using Scikit Learn SVM

Question

I\'m trying to apply SVM from Scikit learn to classify the tweets I collected. So, there will be two categories, name them A and B. For now, I have all the tweets categorize

Answer 1

Have a look at the documentation on text feature extraction.

Also have a look at the text classification example.

There is also a tutorial here:

http://scikit-learn.org/stable/tutorial/text_analytics/working_with_text_data.html

In particular don't focus too much on SVM models (in particular not sklearn.svm.SVC that is more interesting for kernel models hence not text classification): a simple Perceptron, LogisticRegression or Bernoulli naive Bayes models might work as good while being much faster to train.
