- 适合研究经济结构、政策分析及多分类系统融合的学者与决策者。
欧盟经济活动统计分类(NACE)是欧盟内经济与工业活动分类的标准体系。本文提出一种新方法,将NACE分类转化为低维嵌入表示,同时利用先进模型与降维技术保留其固有的层级结构。主要挑战在于在降低维度的同时维持原始分类的层级关系。为此,我们设计了定制化评估指标,用于量化嵌入与降维过程中层级关系的保留程度。实验结果表明,该方法能有效保持对深入分析至关重要的结构信息。该方法不仅支持经济活动关系的可视化探索,还显著提升下游任务如聚类、分类及与其他分类体系整合的性能。通过实证验证,本框架在保留NACE分类层级结构方面表现出色,为研究人员和政策制定者理解与利用层级数据提供了有力工具。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The Statistical Classification of Economic Activities in the European Community (NACE) is the standard classification system for the categorization of economic and industrial activities within the European Union. This paper proposes a novel approach to transform the NACE classification into low-dimensional embeddings, using state-of-the-art models and dimensionality reduction techniques. The primary challenge is the preservation of the hierarchical structure inherent within the original NACE classification while reducing the number of dimensions. To address this issue, we introduce custom metrics designed to quantify the retention of hierarchical relationships throughout the embedding and reduction processes. The evaluation of these metrics demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed methodology in retaining the structural information essential for insightful analysis. This approach not only facilitates the visual exploration of economic activity relationships, but also increases the efficacy of downstream tasks, including clustering, classification, integration with other classifications, and others. Through experimental validation, the utility of our proposed framework in preserving hierarchical structures within the NACE classification is showcased, thereby providing a valuable tool for researchers and policymakers to understand and leverage any hierarchical data.
