Latent Semantic Analysis

چکیده

Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) is a technique for comparing texts using a vector-based representation that is learned from a corpus. This article begins with a description of the history of LSA and its basic functionality. LSA enjoys both theoretical support and empirical results that show how it matches human behavior. A number of the experiments that compare LSA with humans are described here. The article also describes a few of the many successful applications of LSA to text-processing problems, and finishes by presenting a number of current research directions.

Query expansion based on relevance feedback and latent semantic analysis

Web search engines are one of the most popular tools on the Internet which are widely-used by expert and novice users. Constructing an adequate query which represents the best specification of users’ information need to the search engine is an important concern of web users. Query expansion is a way to reduce this concern and increase user satisfaction. In this paper, a new method of query expa...

lsemantica: A Stata Command for Text Similarity based on Latent Semantic Analysis

The lsemantica command, presented in this paper, implements Latent Semantic Analysis in Stata. Latent Semantic Analysis is a machine learning algorithm for word and text similarity comparison. Latent Semantic Analysis uses Truncated Singular Value Decomposition to derive the hidden semantic relationships between words and texts. lsemantica provides a simple command for Latent Semantic Analysis ...

Using Random Indexing to improve Singular Value Decomposition for Latent Semantic Analysis

We present results from using Random Indexing for Latent Semantic Analysis to handle Singular Value Decomposition tractability issues. We compare Latent Semantic Analysis, Random Indexing and Latent Semantic Analysis on Random Indexing reduced matrices. In this study we use a corpus comprising 1003 documents from the MEDLINE-corpus. Our results show that Latent Semantic Analysis on Random Index...

Presentation of an efficient automatic short answer grading model based on combination of pseudo relevance feedback and semantic relatedness measures

Automatic short answer grading (ASAG) is the automated process of assessing answers based on natural language using computation methods and machine learning algorithms. Development of large-scale smart education systems on one hand and the importance of assessment as a key factor in the learning process and its confronted challenges, on the other hand, have significantly increased the need for ...
