The proposed method is evaluated using twitter data set. Findings: It is proved, that the proposed decision forest based feature extraction improves the precision of the classifiers in the range of 12.49% to 62.5% when compared to PCA and by 49.5% to 62.5% when compared to decision tree based feature selection.
