  • Identification of Urdu Ghazal Poets Using SVM
    Mehran University Research Journal of Engineering & Technology Vol. 38, No. 4, 935-944 October 2019 p-ISSN: 0254-7821, e-ISSN: 2413-7219 DOI: 10.22581/muet1982.1904.07 Identification of Urdu Ghazal Poets using SVM NIDA TARIQ*, IQRA EJAZ*, MUHAMMAD KAMRAN MALIK*, ZUBAIR NAWAZ*, AND FAISAL BUKHARI* RECEIVED ON 08.06.2018 ACCEPTED ON 30.10.2018 ABSTRACT Urdu literature has a rich tradition of poetry, with many forms, one of which is Ghazal. Urdu poetry structures are mainly of Arabic origin. It has complex and different sentence structure compared to our daily language which makes it hard to classify. Our research is focused on the identification of poets if given with ghazals as input. Previously, no one has done this type of work. Two main factors which help categorize and classify a given text are the contents and writing style. Urdu poets like Mirza Ghalib, Mir Taqi Mir, Iqbal and many others have a different writing style and the topic of interest. Our model caters these two factors, classify ghazals using different classification models such as SVM (Support Vector Machines), Decision Tree, Random forest, Naïve Bayes and KNN (K-Nearest Neighbors). Furthermore, we have also applied feature selection techniques like chi square model and L1 based feature selection. For experimentation, we have prepared a dataset of about 4000 Ghazals. We have also compared the accuracy of different classifiers and concluded the best results for the collected dataset of Ghazals. Key Words: Text classification, Support Vector Machines, Urdu poetry, Naïve Bayes, Decision Tree, Feature Selection, Chi Square, k-Nearest Neighbors, Ghazal, L1, Random Forest.

    The Report committee for Gwendolyn Sarah Kirk Certifies that this is the approved version of the following report: Half-Drawn Arrows of Meaning: A Phenomenological Approach to Ambiguity and Semantics in the Urdu Ghazal APPROVED BY SUPERVISING COMMITTEE: Supervisor: ____________________________________ Elizabeth Keating ____________________________________ Kathleen Stewart Half-Drawn Arrows of Meaning: A Phenomenological Approach to Ambiguity and Semantics in the Urdu Ghazal by Gwendolyn Sarah Kirk, B.A. Report Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin May 2011 Half-Drawn Arrows of Meaning: A Phenomenological Approach to Ambiguity and Semantics in the Urdu Ghazal by Gwendolyn Sarah Kirk, MA The University of Texas at Austin, 2010 SUPERVISOR: Elizabeth Keating In this paper I explore the role of ambiguity in the creation of meaning in the Urdu ghazal. Ghazal, the predominant genre of Urdu poetry, consists of a series of thematically unrelated yet metrically and prosodically related couplets, each densely packed with multiple and complex meanings. Ambiguity, both lexical and grammatical, is a key technique in the poetics of this genre. Here I not only analyze the different ways ambiguity manifests itself but also the way it has historically been and continues to be mobilized by poets and practitioners of the genre to further imbue each couplet with culture-specific, socially relevant meanings. Breaking with previous approaches to Urdu poetry and poetics, I examine ambiguity in the ghazal with reference to theoretical traditions in linguistic anthropology of ethnopoetics, performance and verbal art, and ethnographic examination of poetic praxis.

Beginning with Carlo Coppola’s PhD dissertation, Urdu Poetry—The Progressive Episode 1935–1970 , University of Chicago, 1975, we are fortu- nate to have some excellent studies of the Progressive Writers’ Movement. See, for example, Khizar Humayun Ansari’s, The Emergence of Socialist Thought Among North Indian Muslims (1917–1947) (Lahore: Shirkat Printing Press, 1990). 4 . See Yunus Javed’s comprehensive study of the history and activities of this important parallel organization: Halqa-e Arbab-e Zauq: Tanzim, Tahrik, Nazaria (Islamabad: Dost Publications, 2003). 5 . I am grateful to Dr. Naimur Rahman Farooqi, for making available the merit list of graduating students in 1940 and 1942. 6 . The critical-essays volumes are separate from the “Jhalkiyan” corpus. 7 . I discuss this in chapter 3 . 8 . See Stephen O.

Apparently tales of Askari and Firaq’s “relationship” were common in Allahabad in those days, though almost impossible to find recorded.
