Topic model visualization with IPython

Abstract

The paper introduces an approach to topic model visualization that is characterized by wide possibilities of choosing a method of visualization, user-friendly model representation, and simplicity of implementation for applications. The existing approaches to topic models visualization have been analyzed, and a system, which allows choosing data source for topic models, changing modeling parameters and visualizing the result of topic modeling with IPython has been developed. The example of topic model visualization has been built using the SCTM-en corpus of original news text.
