Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) is a popular topic modeling technique for hidden semantic discovery of text data and serves as a fundamental tool for text analysis in various applications. However, the LDA model as well as the training…

A popular approach to topic modeling involves extracting co-occurring n-grams of a corpus into semantic themes. The set of n-grams in a theme represents an underlying topic, but most topic modeling approaches are not able to label these…

There has been an increasingly popular trend in Universities for curriculum transformation to make teaching more interactive and suitable for online courses. An increase in the popularity of online courses would result in an increase in the…

Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) is a fundamental method for classification. Its simple linear structure facilitates interpretation, and it is naturally suited to multi-class settings. LDA is also closely connected to several classical…

In this paper, we propose a new variant of Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) to solve multi-label classification tasks. The proposed method is based on a probabilistic model for defining the weights of individual samples in a weighted…

Hyper-parameters play a major role in the learning and inference process of latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA). In order to begin the LDA latent variables learning process, these hyper-parameters values need to be pre-determined. We propose…

Classification is an important tool with many useful applications. Among the many classification methods, Fisher's Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) is a traditional model-based approach which makes use of the covariance information.…

Generating user interpretable multi-class predictions in data rich environments with many classes and explanatory covariates is a daunting task. We introduce Diagonal Orthant Latent Dirichlet Allocation (DOLDA), a supervised topic model for…

Multi-source domain adaptation (MSDA) addresses the challenge of learning a label prediction function for an unlabeled target domain by leveraging both the labeled data from multiple source domains and the unlabeled data from the target…

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…

Latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) is a widely-used probabilistic topic modeling paradigm, and recently finds many applications in computer vision and computational biology. In this paper, we propose a fast and accurate batch algorithm,…

Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) is a probabilistic model used to uncover latent topics in a corpus of documents. Inference is often performed using variational Bayes (VB) algorithms, which calculate a lower bound to the posterior…

Topic models are one of the most popular methods for learning representations of text, but a major challenge is that any change to the topic model requires mathematically deriving a new inference algorithm. A promising approach to address…

Most of the information on the Internet is represented in the form of microtexts, which are short text snippets such as news headlines or tweets. These sources of information are abundant, and mining these data could uncover meaningful…

This paper proposes a nonparametric Bayesian method for exploratory data analysis and feature construction in continuous time series. Our method focuses on understanding shared features in a set of time series that exhibit significant…

An important aspect of text mining involves information retrieval in form of discovery of semantic themes (topics) from documents using topic modelling. While generative topic models like Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) or Latent Semantic…

We develop a privatised stochastic variational inference method for Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA). The iterative nature of stochastic variational inference presents challenges: multiple iterations are required to obtain accurate…

We describe the use of Non-Negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) and Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) algorithms to perform topic mining and labelling applied to retail customer communications in attempt to characterize the subject of…

Linear and Quadratic Discriminant analysis (LDA/QDA) are common tools for classification problems. For these methods we assume observations are normally distributed within group. We estimate a mean and covariance matrix for each group and…

High-dimensional multivariate longitudinal data, which arise when many outcome variables are measured repeatedly over time, are becoming increasingly common in social, behavioral and health sciences. We propose a latent variable model for…
