Abstract: In the era of big data, with the continuous popularization of social media, various text data are growing in the network and in life. It is of great significance to analyze and manage text data using text classification technology. Text classification is a basic research field in the field of artificial intelligence natural language processing. Under the given criteria, it classifies text according to content. The application scenarios of text classification are very extensive, such as sentiment analysis, topic classification, relationship classification, etc. Deep learning is a method of representation learning based on data in machine learning, and it shows good classification effect in text data processing. Chinese text and English text have differences in form, sound, and image. Focusing on the uniqueness of Chinese text classification, this paper analyzes and expounds the deep learning methods used for Chinese text classification, and finally sorts out commonly used datasets for Chinese text classification.

Key words: Chinese text classification, natural language, deep learning, machine learning
