The TF-IDF (Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency) is a weighting method used in text search. This statistical measure makes it possible to evaluate the importance of a term contained in a document, relative to a collection or corpus. The weight increases in proportion to the number of occurrences of the word in the document. It also varies according to the frequency of the word in the corpus. The TF-IDF is used in particular in the classification of spam in email softwares.
