Using Topic Modeling Against a Corpora

Tuesday, November 30, 2021

11:00am – noon

247 Hesburgh Library, Navari Family Center for Digital Scholarship

Topic modeling is a process of analyzing a collection of texts to better understand the collection as a whole. Given a corpora of documents (books, articles, Web pages, etc.) from any discipline, topic modeling divides the corpora into sub-corpora, and each sub-corpora will be identified with a theme. This process can be useful for identifying genres, authors, or subjects in a body of literature.

This hands-on workshop will demonstrate and facilitate the use of a free Java-based program called Topic Modeling Tool.

Participants are expected to bring their computer with Java already installed (which most do).
