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

Overlapping stochastic block models with application to the French political blogosphere
TL;DR: This approach allows the vertices to belong to multiple clusters, and, to some extent, generalizes the well-known Stochastic Block Model, and proposes an approximate inference procedure, based on global and local variational techniques.

Exploring social annotations for information retrieval
TL;DR: A unified framework to combine the modeling of social annotations with the language modeling-based methods for information retrieval is proposed, which proposes a new general generative model for social annotations which is then simplified to a computationally tractable hierarchical Bayesian network.
