Probabilistic Topic Modelling with Semantic Graph
Probabilistic Topic Modelling with Semantic Graph B Long Chen( ), Joemon M. Jose, Haitao Yu, Fajie Yuan, and Huaizhi Zhang School of Computing Science, University of Glasgow, Sir Alwyns Building, Glasgow, UK [email protected] Abstract. In this paper we propose a novel framework, topic model with semantic graph (TMSG), which couples topic model with the rich knowledge from DBpedia. To begin with, we extract the disambiguated entities from the document collection using a document entity linking system, i.e., DBpedia Spotlight, from which two types of entity graphs are created from DBpedia to capture local and global contextual knowl- edge, respectively. Given the semantic graph representation of the docu- ments, we propagate the inherent topic-document distribution with the disambiguated entities of the semantic graphs. Experiments conducted on two real-world datasets show that TMSG can significantly outperform the state-of-the-art techniques, namely, author-topic Model (ATM) and topic model with biased propagation (TMBP). Keywords: Topic model · Semantic graph · DBpedia 1 Introduction Topic models, such as Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (PLSA) [7]and Latent Dirichlet Analysis (LDA) [2], have been remarkably successful in ana- lyzing textual content. Specifically, each document in a document collection is represented as random mixtures over latent topics, where each topic is character- ized by a distribution over words. Such a paradigm is widely applied in various areas of text mining. In view of the fact that the information used by these mod- els are limited to document collection itself, some recent progress have been made on incorporating external resources, such as time [8], geographic location [12], and authorship [15], into topic models. -

A Comprehensive Embedding Approach for Determining Repository Similarity
Repo2Vec: A Comprehensive Embedding Approach for Determining Repository Similarity Md Omar Faruk Rokon Pei Yan Risul Islam Michalis Faloutsos UC Riverside UC Riverside UC Riverside UC Riverside [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Abstract—How can we identify similar repositories and clusters among a large online archive, such as GitHub? Determining repository similarity is an essential building block in studying the dynamics and the evolution of such software ecosystems. The key challenge is to determine the right representation for the diverse repository features in a way that: (a) it captures all aspects of the available information, and (b) it is readily usable by ML algorithms. We propose Repo2Vec, a comprehensive embedding approach to represent a repository as a distributed vector by combining features from three types of information sources. As our key novelty, we consider three types of information: (a) metadata, (b) the structure of the repository, and (c) the source code. We also introduce a series of embedding approaches to represent and combine these information types into a single embedding. We evaluate our method with two real datasets from GitHub for a combined 1013 repositories. First, we show that our method outperforms previous methods in terms of precision (93% Figure 1: Our approach outperforms the state of the art approach vs 78%), with nearly twice as many Strongly Similar repositories CrossSim in terms of precision using CrossSim dataset. We also see and 30% fewer False Positives. Second, we show how Repo2Vec the effect of different types of information that Repo2Vec considers: provides a solid basis for: (a) distinguishing between malware and metadata, adding structure, and adding source code information. -
Matrix Decompositions and Latent Semantic Indexing
Online edition (c)2009 Cambridge UP DRAFT! © April 1, 2009 Cambridge University Press. Feedback welcome. 403 Matrix decompositions and latent 18 semantic indexing On page 123 we introduced the notion of a term-document matrix: an M N matrix C, each of whose rows represents a term and each of whose column× s represents a document in the collection. Even for a collection of modest size, the term-document matrix C is likely to have several tens of thousands of rows and columns. In Section 18.1.1 we first develop a class of operations from linear algebra, known as matrix decomposition. In Section 18.2 we use a special form of matrix decomposition to construct a low-rank approximation to the term-document matrix. In Section 18.3 we examine the application of such low-rank approximations to indexing and retrieving documents, a technique referred to as latent semantic indexing. While latent semantic in- dexing has not been established as a significant force in scoring and ranking for information retrieval, it remains an intriguing approach to clustering in a number of domains including for collections of text documents (Section 16.6, page 372). Understanding its full potential remains an area of active research. Readers who do not require a refresher on linear algebra may skip Sec- tion 18.1, although Example 18.1 is especially recommended as it highlights a property of eigenvalues that we exploit later in the chapter. 18.1 Linear algebra review We briefly review some necessary background in linear algebra. Let C be an M N matrix with real-valued entries; for a term-document matrix, all × RANK entries are in fact non-negative. -

McGlone, Lafayette College Latent semantic analysis for text-based research PETER W. FOLTZ New Mexico State University, Las Cruces, New Mexico Latent semantic analysis (LSA) is a statistical model of word usage that permits comparisons of se mantic similarity between pieces of textual information. This papersummarizes three experiments that illustrate how LSA may be used in text-based research. Two experiments describe methods for ana lyzinga subject's essay for determining from what text a subject learned the information and for grad ing the quality of information cited in the essay. The third experiment describes using LSAto measure the coherence and comprehensibility of texts.
