11. A computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform acts comprising:
obtaining an identity of a class previously assigned to an input vector by a computer-implemented text classifier, wherein the input vector is representative of a sequence of terms, and further wherein the class is amongst several classes to which input vectors are assignable by the computer-implemented text classifier;
based upon the identity of the class, selecting a class profile of a centroidal classifier, the class profile constructed based upon a set of vectors previously identified as belonging to the class by the computer-implemented text classifier; and
generating output based upon the selected class profile, wherein the output is configured to be information to a user of the computer-implemented text classifier as to why the computer-implemented text classifier assigned the input vector to the class.
