Description
Topic Modeling. How do we identify topics within a corpus of documents? In this part, we study unsupervised learning of text data. Specifically, we use topic models such as Latent Dirichlet Allocation and Non-negative Matrix Factorization to construct “topics” in text from the statistical regularities in the data.
