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

Inferring Networks of Substitutable and Complementary Products
TL;DR: In this paper, a method to infer networks of substitutable and complementary products is proposed, where the semantics of substitutes and complements are learned from data associated with products using topic models.

Cross-modal Retrieval with Correspondence Autoencoder
TL;DR: The problem of cross-modal retrieval, e.g., using a text query to search for images and vice-versa, is considered and a novel model involving correspondence autoencoder (Corr-AE) is proposed here for solving this problem, which is constructed by correlating hidden representations of two uni- modal autoencoders.

Integrating Topics and Syntax
TL;DR: This work presents a generative model that uses both kinds of dependencies, and can be used to simultaneously find syntactic classes and semantic topics despite having no representation of syntax or semantics beyond statistical dependency.

Relational Topic Models for Document Networks
Jonathan Chang,David M. Blei +1 more
TL;DR: The relational topic model (RTM) is developed, a model of documents and the links between them that derives efficient inference and learning algorithms based on variational methods and evaluates the predictive performance of the RTM for large networks of scientific abstracts and web documents.

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.
