  Description     : Automatic Text Categorization

AI::Categorizer is a framework for automatic text categorization.
It consists of a collection of Perl modules that implement common
categorization tasks, and a set of defined relationships among
those modules. The various details are flexible - for example,
you can choose what categorization algorithm to use, what
features (words or otherwise) of the documents should be used
(or how to automatically choose these features), what format the
documents are in, and so on.

The basic process of using this module will typically involve
obtaining a collection of pre-categorized documents, creating a
"knowledge set" representation of those documents, training a
categorizer on that knowledge set, and saving the trained
categorizer for later use. There are several ways to carry out
this process. The top-level AI::Categorizer module provides an
umbrella class for high-level operations, or you may use the
interfaces of the individual classes in the framework.

I will package it within the Debian Perl Team.
