An Online Topic Modeling Framework with Topics Automatically Labeled

Information Retrieval 2019-07-04 v1 Computation and Language

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a novel online topic tracking framework, named IEDL, for tracking the topic changes related to deep learning techniques on Stack Exchange and automatically interpreting each identified topic. The proposed framework combines the prior topic distributions in a time window during inferring the topics in current time slice, and introduces a new ranking scheme to select most representative phrases and sentences for the inferred topics in each time slice. Experiments on 7,076 Stack Exchange posts show the effectiveness of IEDL in tracking topic changes and labeling topics.
