Abstract

The problem under the study of this work is investigating data mining algorithms for intelligent analysis of data written in Arabic. The study comprised instead involves several stages, including Data Collection and Pre-Processing; Data Mining Algorithms (Multinomial Naïve Bayes Classifier, Naïve Bayes Classifier, Support Vector Machine and Modified K-Means); Study Results Processing and Software Implementation. A total of 16,732 Facebook posts written exclusively in Arabic were downloaded. Almost two-thirds of them (namely 11,155 items) were used to train algorithms, while the rest (5577 items) were subject to research. The training data were categorized into five groups based on subjects (politics, entertainment, medicine, science, and religion) with five
