However, the\nstructure of the textual input, and for instance the grouping of words in\ncoherent text spans such as sentences, contains much information which is\ngenerally lost with these models. In this paper, we propose sentenceLDA, an\nextension of LDA whose goal is to overcome this limitation by incorporating the\nstructure of the text in the generative and inference processes. We illustrate\nthe advantages of sentenceLDA by comparing it with LDA using both intrinsic\n(perplexity) and extrinsic (text classification) evaluation tasks on different\ntext collections.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1606.00253v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1606.00253v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"on-a-topic-model-for-sentences","repo_url":"https://github.com/balikasg/topicModelling","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"classification","task_name":"General Classification"},{"task_slug":"text-classification","task_name":"Text Classification"},{"task_slug":"topic-models","task_name":"Topic Models"},{"task_slug":"model","task_name":"model"},{"task_slug":"text-classification-1","task_name":"text-classification"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"lda","method_name":"LDA"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=1606.00253","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
