A Topic Model for Word Sense Disambiguation

We develop latent Dirichlet allocation with WORDNET (LDAWN), an unsupervised probabilistic topic model that includes word sense as a hidden variable. We develop a probabilistic posterior inference algorithm for simultaneously disambiguating a corpus and learning the domains in which to consider each word. Using the WORDNET hierarchy, we embed the construction of Abney and Light (1999) in the to...

Best Topic Word Selection for Topic Labelling

This paper presents the novel task of best topic word selection, that is the selection of the topic word that is the best label for a given topic, as a means of enhancing the interpretation and visualisation of topic models. We propose a number of features intended to capture the best topic word, and show that, in combination as inputs to a reranking model, we are able to consistently achieve r...

Improving Distributed Word Representation and Topic Model by Word-Topic Mixture Model

We propose a Word-Topic Mixture(WTM) model to improve word representation and topic model simultaneously. Firstly, it introduces the initial external word embeddings into the Topical Word Embeddings(TWE) model based on Latent Dirichlet Allocation(LDA) model to learn word embeddings and topic vectors. Then the results learned from TWE are integrated in the LDA by defining the probability distrib...

Extended Topic Model for Word Dependency

Topic Model such as Latent Dirichlet Allocation(LDA) makes assumption that topic assignment of different words are conditionally independent. In this paper, we propose a new model Extended Global Topic Random Field (EGTRF) to model non-linear dependencies between words. Specifically, we parse sentences into dependency trees and represent them as a graph, and assume the topic assignment of a wor...
