Experiments with Dynamic Topic Models

    Research output: A Conference proceeding or a Chapter in BookConference contributionpeer-review

    Abstract

    General summary of news content is a task under the general heading of “information summarisation,” and it is recognised as a way of overcoming information overload. How does one summarise a large number of articles with their time as well as topical content? Here we introduce one technique, dynamic topic models, built using discrete non-parametric techniques, and demonstrate our software that can do this relatively efficiently using multi-core methods. Examples are used from a 760k collection of news articles from the Australian Broadcasting Commission (ABC) website over a ten year period.
