Иерархическая классификация документов
Classifies documents through deep patent, retail product, biomedical, and source-code hierarchies using parallel beam search over TypeSafe Choice probabilities.
Классификация документов по глубоким иерархиям патентов, товарных категорий, биомедицинских терминов и исходного кода с использованием параллельного лучевого поиска (beam search) по вероятностям TypeSafe Choice.
Огромный объем данных существует в виде структурированных иерархий: таксономии, структуры файловых систем, каталоги веб-сайтов, кодовые базы, организационные структуры, биологические онтологии, навыки LLM, политики модерации и т. д. Задача иерархической классификации заключается в прохождении по дереву к правильному листовому узлу (leaf node), который и представляет собой итоговый класс. Это идеальный сценарий для примитива TypeSafe Choice. Наиболее вероятный лист можно найти, классифицируя документ в каждом узле (начиная с корня) и итеративно переходя к следующему наиболее вероятному дочернему узлу вплоть до достижения листа (жадный поиск / Greedy Search).
Параллельная природа API TypeSafe также позволяет исследовать сразу несколько путей одновременно с помощью параллельных вопросов в рамках лучевого поиска (Beam Search) для повышения точности. Вызовы API TypeSafe в этом руководстве параллельно оценивают K путей иерархии. Лучевой поиск сохраняет лучшие K путей по среднему геометрическому вероятностей переходов: product(edge_probabilities) ** (1 / decisions), отсекая остальные. Вероятность нормализуется по длине пути, благодаря чему поверхностные и глубокие листья сравниваются справедливо.
Декомпозиция задачи на иерархию дает дополнительные преимущества:
- Наблюдаемость (Observability)
- выявление узлов, в которых чаще всего возникают ошибки классификации;
- измерение частоты прохождения каждого узла и ребра.
- Тестируемость (Testability)
- модульное тестирование и оценка влияния обновлений структуры иерархии на качество классификации.

Иерархии, используемые в этом руководстве
- CPC 2026.05: патентная классификация, от общих технологических разделов до конкретных изобретений.
- Shopify 2026-02: таксономия розничных товаров, от отделов магазина до специфических типов продуктов.
- MeSH 2026: медицинские предметные рубрики (Medical Subject Headings), от широких областей до конкретных заболеваний. MeSH представляет собой направленный ациклический граф (DAG), поэтому один дескриптор может находиться под несколькими родителями; в демо развернуты его официальные пути по номерам деревьев.
- Файлы CookSafe: иерархия репозитория примеров TypeSafe, поиск от каталогов к файлам исходного кода.
Методы
- Жадный поиск (Greedy search): выбирает дочерний узел с наибольшей локальной вероятностью и отбрасывает все альтернативы. Ошибку, допущенную на раннем этапе, исправить невозможно.
- Лучевой поиск (Beam search): сохраняет
Kправдоподобных путей и параллельно классифицирует каждый фронтир. Дополнительные свидетельства на глубоких уровнях способны исправить неоднозначное решение, принятое в начале пути. Лист пути с наибольшей средней геометрической вероятностью становится итоговой классификацией. - TypeSafe Choice: каждый узел представляет собой вопрос
Choice, полное распределение вероятностей которого соответствует исходящим ребрам. Каждая ветвь луча выполняется параллельными вопросами, поэтому дополнительное ветвление практически не увеличивает общее время ответа (wall-clock latency). - Формулы:
path_score = product(edge_probabilities) ** (1 / decisions)- используется для отсечения (прунинга) и сравнения путей.
separation = top_path_score / second_path_score- полезная метрика уверенности (не используется для отсечения).
- соотношение сравнивает среднее геометрическое лучшего пути с его ближайшим соперником: значение близкое к
1×означает неопределенность, большое значение говорит об уверенном отрыве.
- Замечания по метрикам:
- можно использовать другие метрики, например
min(top_prob/second_top_prob), оптимизирующую пути с однозначными решениями на каждом шаге; - используйте
exp(mean(log(probs)))вместоproduct(edge_probabilities) ** (1 / decisions)во избежание потери точности чисел с плавающей точкой в очень глубоких иерархиях (>10 уровней).
- можно использовать другие метрики, например
Загрузка и визуализация примеров иерархий
Вспомогательные функции загружают зафиксированные источники таксономий, парсят их в деревья прямых дочерних связей и рендерят каждое дерево поиска в виде статического SVG.

Сравнение методов

Результаты
Для каждого примера известен эталонный лист. Лучевой поиск совпал с эталоном в 4 из 4 случаев; жадный поиск — в 2 из 4. Сохранение трех путей луча позволило восстановить правильную классификацию для CPC patents и Shopify products.

Диаграммы наглядно показывают различия между методами. Оранжевым цветом отмечен жадный маршрут, зеленым — победивший маршрут лучевого поиска, фиолетовым — другие сохраненные пути луча, а пунктиром — отсеченные ветви.
