Abstract

With the rapid expansion of digital newspapers, readers have an overwhelming amount of news available daily. However, it is difficult to keep track of the news that is only of interest to the reader. Because of this, this research discusses the use of deep learning for the classification of news, especially crime related, published by Mexican digital newspapers as well as an analysis of the predictions obtained through the proposed model. According to the experimental results, the proposed system achieves 98.87% of accuracy.
