TLDR
This work proposes a generative model for text and other collections of discrete data that generalizes or improves on several previous models including naive Bayes/unigram, mixture of unigrams, and Hofmann's aspect model.Abstract:
We describe latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA), a generative probabilistic model for collections of discrete data such as text corpora. LDA is a three-level hierarchical Bayesian model, in which each item of a collection is modeled as a finite mixture over an underlying set of topics. Each topic is, in turn, modeled as an infinite mixture over an underlying set of topic probabilities. In the context of text modeling, the topic probabilities provide an explicit representation of a document. We present efficient approximate inference techniques based on variational methods and an EM algorithm for empirical Bayes parameter estimation. We report results in document modeling, text classification, and collaborative filtering, comparing to a mixture of unigrams model and the probabilistic LSI model.read more

A Thousand Words in a Scene
TL;DR: In this article, the combined use of text modeling methods and local invariant features is investigated for visual scene modeling and classification, investigating whether a textlike bag-of-visterms (BOV) representation is suitable for scene (rather than object) classification, whether some analogies between discrete scene representations and text documents exist, and whether unsupervised, latent space models can be used both as feature extractors for the classification task and to discover patterns of visual co-occurrence.

Nested Hierarchical Dirichlet Processes
TL;DR: A stochastic variational inference algorithm is derived for the model, which enables efficient inference for massive collections of text documents and alleviates the rigid, single-path formulation of the nCRP.

Temporal Analysis of Language through Neural Language Models
TL;DR: This article proposed a method for automatically detecting change in language across time through a chronologically trained neural language model, trained on the Google Books Ngram corpus to obtain word vector representations specific to each year, and identify words that have changed significantly from 1900 to 2009.

Indexing by Latent Semantic Analysis
TL;DR: A new method for automatic indexing and retrieval to take advantage of implicit higher-order structure in the association of terms with documents (“semantic structure”) in order to improve the detection of relevant documents on the basis of terms found in queries.
