Topic models are widely used to analyze document collections. While they are valuable for discovering latent topics in a corpus when analysts are unfamiliar with the corpus, analysts also commonly start with an understanding of the content…
The tremendous increase in the amount of available research documents impels researchers to propose topic models to extract the latent semantic themes of a documents collection. However, how to extract the hidden topics of the documents…
Automatically associating social media posts with topics is an important prerequisite for effective search and recommendation on many social media platforms. However, topic classification of such posts is quite challenging because of (a) a…
Topic models such as LDA, DocNADE, iDocNADEe have been popular in document analysis. However, the traditional topic models have several limitations including: (1) Bag-of-words (BoW) assumption, where they ignore word ordering, (2) Data…
Social network analysis (SNA), which is a research field describing and modeling the social connection of a certain group of people, is popular among network services. Our topic words analysis project is a SNA method to visualize the topic…
The abundance of online user data has led to a surge of interests in understanding the dynamics of social relationships using computational methods. Utilizing users' items adoption data, we develop a new method to compute the Granger-causal…
A common use of NLP is to facilitate the understanding of large document collections, with a shift from using traditional topic models to Large Language Models. Yet the effectiveness of using LLM for large corpus understanding in real-world…
The exponential growth of online social network platforms and applications has led to a staggering volume of user-generated textual content, including comments and reviews. Consequently, users often face difficulties in extracting valuable…
Traditional Relational Topic Models provide a way to discover the hidden topics from a document network. Many theoretical and practical tasks, such as dimensional reduction, document clustering, link prediction, benefit from this revealed…
When building large-scale machine learning (ML) programs, such as big topic models or deep neural nets, one usually assumes such tasks can only be attempted with industrial-sized clusters with thousands of nodes, which are out of reach for…
Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) model is a famous model in the topic model field, it has been studied for years due to its extensive application value in industry and academia. However, the mathematical derivation of LDA model is…
The syntactic topic model (STM) is a Bayesian nonparametric model of language that discovers latent distributions of words (topics) that are both semantically and syntactically coherent. The STM models dependency parsed corpora where…
Tagging is nowadays the most prevalent and practical way to make images searchable. However, in reality many manually-assigned tags are irrelevant to image content and hence are not reliable for applications. A lot of recent efforts have…
Topic modeling has found wide application in many problems where latent structures of the data are crucial for typical inference tasks. When applying a topic model, a relatively standard pre-processing step is to first build a vocabulary of…
This paper addresses methodological issues in diachronic data analysis for historical research. We apply two families of topic models (LDA and DTM) on a relatively large set of historical newspapers, with the aim of capturing and…
We have used an unsupervised machine learning method called Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) to thematically analyze all papers published in the Physics Education Research Conference Proceedings between 2001 and 2018. By looking at…
We describe a nonparametric topic model for labeled data. The model uses a mixture of random measures (MRM) as a base distribution of the Dirichlet process (DP) of the HDP framework, so we call it the DP-MRM. To model labeled data, we…
Synthetic tabular data generation has attracted growing attention due to its importance for data augmentation, foundation models, and privacy. However, real-world tabular datasets increasingly contain free-form text fields (e.g., reviews or…
One of the challenges for text analysis in medical domains is analyzing large-scale medical documents. As a consequence, finding relevant documents has become more difficult. One of the popular methods to retrieve information based on…
In the real world, many topics are inter-correlated, making it challenging to investigate their structure and relationships. Understanding the interplay between topics and their relevance can provide valuable insights for researchers,…
