arXiv:2608.11044v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Hierarchical Text Classification (HTC), as a critical text mining task, faces challenges such as complex label hierarchies and class imbalance. Existing methods based on large language models (LLMs) struggle to be efficiently applied to this task due to issues like lengthy prompts and loss of label structural information. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a weakly supervised HTC framework enhanced by LLM-based data augmentation. The framework first enriches the label hierarchy semantically through keyword generation and corpus mining, thereby enhancing the model's understanding of labels. Subsequently, it guides the LLM to generate pseudo-samples to mitigate the long-tail problem, and employs a Gaussian mixture model for confidence-based resampling to optimize the quality of generated data. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method effectively improves the reliability of LLM-generated pseudo-labels and significantly enhances classification performance on fine-grained and imbalanced datasets.
