Assignment 2: Twitter Topic Modeling with Latent Dirichlet Allocation Background

نویسنده

  • Arvind Ramanathan
چکیده

In this assignment we are going to implement a parallel MapReduce version of a popular topic modeling algorithm called Latent Dirchlet Allocation (LDA). Because it allows for exploring vast document collection, we are going to use this algorithm to see if we can automatically identify topics from a series of Tweets. For the purpose of this assignment, we are going to treat every tweet as a document and only use the words and hashtags in these tweets to identify the topics.

Automatic keyword extraction using Latent Dirichlet Allocation topic modeling: Similarity with golden standard and users' evaluation

Purpose: This study investigates the automatic keyword extraction from the table of contents of Persian e-books in the field of science using LDA topic modeling, evaluating their similarity with golden standard, and users' viewpoints of the model keywords. Methodology: This is a mixed text-mining research in which LDA topic modeling is used to extract keywords from the table of contents of sci...

Improving Twitter Sentiment Analysis with Topic-Based Mixture Modeling and Semi-Supervised Training

In this paper, we present multiple approaches to improve sentiment analysis on Twitter data. We first establish a state-of-the-art baseline with a rich feature set. Then we build a topic-based sentiment mixture model with topic-specific data in a semi-supervised training framework. The topic information is generated through topic modeling based on an efficient implementation of Latent Dirichlet...

Modeling Word Relatedness in Latent Dirichlet Allocation

Standard LDA model suffers the problem that the topic assignment of each word is independent and word correlation hence is neglected. To address this problem, in this paper, we propose a model called Word Related Latent Dirichlet Allocation (WR-LDA) by incorporating word correlation into LDA topic models. This leads to new capabilities that standard LDA model does not have such as estimating in...

Twitter Topic Modeling by Tweet Aggregation

Conventional topic modeling schemes, such as Latent Dirichlet Allocation, are known to perform inadequately when applied to tweets, due to the sparsity of short documents. To alleviate these disadvantages, we apply several pooling techniques, aggregating similar tweets into individual documents, and specifically study the aggregation of tweets sharing authors or hashtags. The results show that ...

Topic Modeling in Twitter: Aggregating Tweets by Conversations

We propose a new pooling technique for topic modeling in Twitter, which groups together tweets occurring in the same user-to-user conversation. Under this scheme, tweets and their replies are aggregated into a single document and the users who posted them are considered co-authors. To compare this new scheme against existing ones, we train topic models using Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) an...
